Spring 2023 trend: denim dominance
Coming into the Spring 2023 season, there's no doubt that runway denim is here to stay. Canadian tuxedos, utilitarian cargo jeans, and baggy styles nodding to the early Aught years helped bring back the laid-back, laid-back side of denim.
Denim appeared in many collections in all fashion cities. Kate Moss walking the Bottega Veneta show in what looked like a plaid flannel shirt and baggy jeans officially rang the bell for open season for a smart-casual outfit. In reality, the casual look was just the aesthetic, as WWD's Miles Socha found out backstage after the show.
"It took a backstage scrum to learn that the very ordinary basics that opened the screen, as Moss' plaid shirt and jeans were all leather. 'Perverse banality', designer Matthieu Blazy christened these items," Socha wrote in his review.

Real denim dominated everywhere, but nothing screamed denim fever like Diesel, where designer Glen Martins broke the world record by hosting a show for 5,000 people. In an exclusive preview with WWD's Sandra Salibian, the designer outlined his democratic vision for bringing Diesel to the masses.
With Y2K in mind, the collection continued to prove Martins masterful approach to denim construction and fabric manipulation. “Denim intertwined over organza and with a bleached effect offered a summery and romantic take on Diesel's forte, with the technique replicated on an indigo knit dress as well. Tulle was layered over denim coats and pencil skirts and ripped to create a new way to deliver a distressed effect, which evolved into fully cut looks as the range progressed,” Salibian wrote. in the show review.
Blumarine introduced the denim trend in its underwater fantasy, adding to the "Little Mermaid" trend " of the season . Givenchy played with extra light washes and a cargo pocket in the loose skater girl jeans, a key fit of the season.
In a more retro vibe, Italian automaker-turned-fashion brand Ferrari has brought back wash treatments acid on Canadian tuxedo sets. Versace also explored acid washes, but Donatella Versace went a step further by adding colored denim to the mix, such as lemon yellow and pink.
In a dressier version, Gabriela Hearst's Chloe version of the full denim dress included tailored trench coats, baggy jean styles with lace-up embellishments and stylish crop tops.
