THE FLARED JEAN, THE UNAPOLOGETIC RETURN OF THE SEVENTIES
THE SEVENTIES REVISITED, THE STAR CUT OF TODAY'S DENIM
If one cut symbolizes denim's strong comeback, it's the flared leg. Born in the '70s and popularized by Jane Birkin and the icons of the era, it has been returning for several seasons now as the most stylish cut in the feminine wardrobe. Place du Jour, a historic name in women's denim, immediately brought this cut into its catalog with a modern approach: preserving the pronounced flare and retro spirit, while adapting it to today's figures with a high-waisted fit that structures the silhouette. The result: a cut that elongates the legs like no other.
FLARED, WIDE-LEG, FRAYED HEMS — EVERY NUANCE
Place du Jour's flared-cut family comes in several variations. Bold flared jeans with a pronounced flare starting at the knee, for those who want the full seventies effect. More moderate flares that add movement without tipping into costume territory. Frayed-hem versions that add a bohemian, relaxed touch. And styles adorned with embroidery or gold details for lovers of a statement style.
HOW TO WEAR FLARED JEANS — THE MAXIMUM-LENGTHENING GUIDE
The golden rule: wear flared jeans with platform shoes, heels, or minimalist flat white sneakers. Avoid anything that breaks the line. The hem should skim the floor without revealing the ankle. Up top: a fitted top tucked into the waistband highlights your curves and balances the flare below. A shirt knotted at the waist works perfectly too. For a true seventies spirit: a leather belt, a flowy blouse, and platform shoes.
