The 8 Best Baggy Jeans To Buy Now For Spring

These perilously oversized, floor-pooling Haikure jeans are a favourite in the ELLE office at the moment. ‘The Haikure Bethany’s elevate the baggy jean into something you could wear even to the most serious board meeting. Teamed with oversized tailoring they are the perfect fit,’ says deputy editor Lena De Casparis.

The perfect pair of trousers for a 2025 update of the classic Noughties combination of ‘jeans and a nice top’, working brilliantly with delicate details, tailored pieces and a kitten heel for a more elevated look. That said, they also look excellent with a boyish bomber jacket and flats, as Hailey Bieber so often proves.

‘The perfect piece of denim, I have worn these jeans practically every day since discovering them – it’s become almost ridiculous! They are beautifully baggy through the leg, can be worn high or low on the waist, have a slight barrel shape that makes for a sleek silhouette, and generally make any outfit feel instantly ten times cooler. They’re also incredibly flattering. I’m nothing short of obsessed, and plan to buy them in every available colour,’ says acting site fashion editor, Clementina Jackson.

‘My favourite pair of baggy jeans right now are Abercrombie & Fitch’s ultra-loose style in a dark rinse. They’re relaxed around the waist and hips, and then they flow out beautifully, giving them such a laid-back yet chic vibe. They’re perfect for wearing casually throughout the day, but can easily elevated when paired with a heel,’ says editorial assistant Panashe Nyadundu.

These ultra-baggy jeans from Weekday tick all the Y2K boxes, coming in a variety of colourways, this grey-washed style achieves that lived-in feel straight off the bat. Perfectly balanced on the hips these will look great dressed up or down.

‘My go-to baggy jeans are a pair I’ve had for years: Citizen of Humanity’s Horseshoe barrel-leg jeans. I have three pairs — black, navy and white — that I get two sizes bigger than my usual dress size, which allow for optimal soupiness. My trick for perfecting baggy jeans is having the waist of your slightly-too-big jeans tailored so that the oversized fit looks and feels intentional,’ says deputy site editor Naomi May.

‘I’m someone who doesn’t really do jeans. They’re not my thing and I find myself better suited in a skirt. But, I’m having a great time since I introduced a pair of baggy Aligne jeans into my wardrobe,’ says commissioning editor Naomi Pike. ‘I find that their relaxed shape, with turn-up hems, pair perfectly with more ladylike pieces that my wardrobe is full off: namely Chanel pumps, top handle backs and brocade jackets. My baggy jean icon is Paloma Elsesser. I love the way she wears them.’

DL1961 offers core baggy styles in a flattering high-rise waist, perfect for tapping into the Sienna-sponsored boho revival. The classic Hepburn style is more fitted through the waist and seat and tapered outward from the thigh. Coming in a variety of washes, these are a great option for those less inclined to embrace a low waist but still keen to play with proportion.

Reformation’s Cary jeans are another cult classic, frequently sold out and regularly restocked so do keep an eye out. ‘Maybe it’s my slightly curvier shape — I’m larger on bottom than I am on top — and I have long legs, which makes finding the right fit and length in denim difficult, but the Carys balance me out the way a good pair of jeans ought to,’ says Naomi May.
