Even a menswear genre as timeless as denim cycles through trends, and while only last year the runways were embracing oversized shapes and distressed looks, it appears that denim has graduated into a more mature and smarter style category if the shows of Prada, Louis Vuitton and Prada are anything to go by. The ubiquitous denim shirt is less of a ‘western’ style this season, with dressier cutaway collar options by Levi's and Replay leading the way. Jeans have also taken a turn for the more elevated, with the likes of Dondup and Calvin Klein producing deliciously slim fit styles in lightweight denim cloths. These are great styled with textural layers, such as a suede jacket or a tailored corduroy jacket, bookended with some sleek suede Chelsea boots.
