10 Types of Essential Jeans

The perennial wardrobe staple has once again renewed itself in trend-worthy silhouettes, just in time for the new season. While the different types of jeans for women haven't changed much over the years, new denim trends, inspired by the runways, allow us to reimagine how we wear denim. This season, designers have offered everything from laid-back distressed styles and ’90s-era vintage washes to early aughts–inspired cuts.

These designer jeans can be found in a variety of fits for every body type and preference. From skinny jeans to bootcut jeans and far beyond, we’ve rounded up different types of jeans everyone needs in their regular rotation.
