The boyfriend jean

Scared of a loose-fitting boyfriend jean? Don’t be. This best-selling style is midwaist and features a tapered leg to temper the slouchy silhouette. When it comes to styling boyfriend jeans, tuck in your top to give your waist some definition. Paired with a woolly knit and a pair of black leather loafers, you’ll look smart enough to pick up a coffee at your local and then wander into work on a (casual) Friday.
The slim jean

If you prefer a slim or skinny fit, try Trenery’s Slim Jean. Made using a high power comfort stretch material, the shape holds its sleek look over time. This form-fitting cut can handle a little extra volume on top; style them with everything from a t-shirt to roomy silk blouse or oversized knit.
The straight jean

We’re calling it: 2021 is going to be the year of the straight leg jean. While they were never ‘out’ per se, the straight jean is trending this year and we’re not mad about it. Put simply, this style is as versatile as they come. “We designed our straight jean with all the best attributes of the boyfriend,” says Trenery Design Manager for Womenswear, Maria Kozub. “It’s got the same flattering mid-waist and relaxed hip and thigh, but with a straight leg.” Dress them up with a blazer for an office-appropriate look or pair them with sneakers for those more casual off-duty moments.
