Double Denim Done Right

Wear it for

The kind of outfit that photographs well and holds up in person. Wear it to a casual dinner, an outdoor event, or anywhere you want to look considered without appearing overdressed.

Stylist Note

The secret to double denim is tonal contrast — never match the same wash on top and bottom. Dark shirt + light jeans works. Light shirt + dark jeans works. Same wash on both looks like a mistake. Roll the jeans once at the ankle to show the high-tops properly.
