Steal Sophie Turner's style with these 8 high-waisted jeans options
The actress wore denim by Louis Vuitton to the premiere of X-Men: Dark Phoenix, proving the mom jeans trend is bigger than ever!
For those accustomed to raiding mom's closet for retro pieces, we have a new mission for you: old jeans. Seek out classic washed, high-waisted and straight-legged denim pants that have been hanging around a couple of seasons, dubbed 'mom jeans' by trend-setters.


El clásico denim
It's impossible to talk jeans without mentioning the brand that gave the world this classic item: Levi's. For those who aren't on board with the mom jeans trend, the iconic brand has one thing to say: Haters gonna hate, as it calls the blue shade of this classic design. Nordstrom ($98)

War wounds
Jeans are proud to show the wounds from their various battles to defend their place in the world's closets. So much so, in fact, that signs of wear have become a fashion statement. The high-waisted version is also on board, as seen in the Miranda Distressed Jean by Superdown. Revolve ($74)

Comfort and practicality
The comfort of high-waisted jeans is enhanced by the elastic waistband, while front patch pockets reinforce the practical nature of these pants available from Zara for $49.90.

A contoured leg
Deliberate signs of wear help to contour the legs for a more stylish look. Witness the slight fading on these Silas pants by Lovers + Friends. Revolve ($188).

Styling it out in stripes
White side stripes accentuate the form of these pants by Wild Fable and, therefore, your legs, by drawing the eye down the verticals in a trick borrowed from the classic tuxedo pant. Target ($26).
