Hold the Light-Blue Jeans—Those in Paris Recognize This Denim Style as the Best Choice for Fall.

      French women are typically loyal to their preferred denim styles, particularly when it involves essential pieces like light-blue and vintage-inspired jeans, a trend they have consistently embraced over the years. Occasionally, however, an alternative to blue jeans emerges that is so chic that it can demote their beloved styles. This is exactly what's happening with the latest denim trend in Paris: dark-rinse jeans. Indigo washes are making their way into the wardrobes of stylish Parisians (and soon to others). This trend isn't confined to Paris alone, though. Designers like Khaite and Zimmermann showcased "almost black" denim on their fall runways. Given that this color can elevate everything from a white T-shirt to classic black heels far more than typical light-blue denim, it's only a matter of time before fashionable women in other major fashion cities start incorporating these indigo washes into their denim collections as well. Below, see how French women are styling the dark-wash denim trend and check out our favorite pairs.
