The cool-girls of Copenhagen have signalled the return of the denim jacket

CPFW Denim Jackets.

Copenhagen Fashion Week is one of my favourite fashion weeks. Not only do the biggest Scandinavian fashion brands showcase their latest collections (SS25 should you care) but it attracts a seriously cool and ahead-of-the-curve crowd. Naturally, with stylish industry experts and influencers in attendance, the streets are littered with upcoming trends and looks that we'll all soon wear.

One item that’s been cropping up time and time again, is—I must admit—a little unexpected but, while I may have been surprised to see it make its FROW re-appearance, I have to say I couldn’t be happier to see it back in the spotlight. Yes, the humble denim jacket is officially back yet not quite as you knew it.

A long-time wardrobe staple, this season's denim jacket has had an elevated re-imagining. Gone are the oversized trucker jackets of the past and instead fitted, tailored and cropped styles are the shape to be seen in. When it comes to the wash, rich indigo hues continue the elegant and elevated feel for most however lighter even tones are also an option. Just avoid any rip details, burnout or acid washes to keep things classic and refined. 

When it comes to how to style your denim jacket, in 2024, there are no rules. At CPFW the staple was paired with everything from lace dresses to utility-inspired tailoring and even double denim for a top-to-toe coordinated look. 

So, what are you waiting for, get digging your old denim jacket out of your wardrobe, or, if you don’t have one hanging around, keep scrolling to treat yourself to a new style ASAP…
