Even though one owns countless pairs of denims, having the latest and trendiest pair of jeans is a must. A closet staple and wardrobe essential for men and women alike, denim never goes out of style. Every new season brings fresh looks and exciting styles to experiment with, and the autumn-winter (A/W) 2013-2014 season is no exception, offering intriguing designs and game-changing shapes to try.

There are plenty of interesting options to incorporate the denim trend into your clothing. New washes, prints, and lengths are making waves in the denim market. Corduroy in indigo hues with laundered and vintage washes is popular for the winter season. Faded and muted indigo looks in soft and supple denims pair well with winter woolens.

Another major trend is the lumberjack look with plaid prints and brushed wefts. Checks and plaids printed on the lining of denim bottoms can be turned inside out to enhance the winter look, and these designs are commonly found in boyfriend jeans styles.

The distressed and tattered denim look, which has been a lasting trend, continues to be in demand for the fall-winter 2013-14 season. Skinny jeans with rubbed-off resins revealing the contrasting denim fabric underneath remain fashion favorites. Gunmetal, dark chestnut, and deep black are hot colors for winter. Contrasting thread colors like yellow, orange, and blue in distressed jeans' effects are the latest denim trend.

Printed and patterned styles in denim are on the rise. Patterns like micro stripes, chevron, dots, stars, Aztec and ikat-style prints, houndstooth checks, and floral prints add vibrancy to classic washed denims. Sprayed washes in shades of pink, orange, and purple create a smudgy effect on denim surfaces. Another trending look adds a touch of sparkle to solid denims.

Shiny and glossy denim effects are achieved with painted and resin-coated glitter finishes. Metallic-finished denims are perfect for high-fashion evening wear. Vintage denims, slightly heavier in weight with unsinged and unrefined surfaces in muted colors, are ideal for the winter season and a long-lasting investment in your wardrobe.

Experimenting with denim-on-denim outfits is still a popular choice among fashionistas in the A/W 2013-14 season. Soft chambray shirts and tops are essential items for this season. Pair them with solid-colored or washed jeans, and add a leather jacket for a classic autumn-winter look. Denim studded jackets, skirts, shorts, and jeans provide a smart and chic winter trend. Metallic embellishments adorn denim garments, adding a touch of glamour for this season.

If skinny jeans are not one's style, then opting for more slouchy pair of denims, which are also comfortable are runway trends, embraced by trendsetters all over the world. Pairing them up with oversized sweaters and leather boots are the perfect way to step out for a stylish Saturday evening. Jeans in light blue and pastel colors are soon replacing the neon trend this fall.


The most hip looks are denim dresses for the A/W 2013-14. Light blue or chambray dresses for the day and pitch black studded dresses for the evening. Teaming it up with a cool jacket is the new look to adorn and to keep it stylish this winter. Ultra tight skinny jeggings with baggy and long coats are receiving a lot of movement in stores.


Patchwork jeans using two different color tones provide a punk look, is a huge trend for the fall. The fashion thumb rule is to match darker tones with dark patches and lighter ones with light-colored patches and basically avoid contrast. Cropped jeans will remain in style, and pairing them up with quirky socks or a pair of sneakers and a bomber jacket is the way to get going fashionably this winter.


Overalls are back in style and wearing them in denims is the perfect way to be spotted this season. But unlike the 90's loose and baggy style, try picking up more fitted for the fall favorites. Boxy denim jackets are another growing trend, cropped but baggy, and would go with just about any outfit in one's closet. Raw and unfinished hemlines of skinny denims for casual wears are also extremely popular.

 

This winter the denim trends are getting more exciting and refreshing than ever. Outfitting oneself with the denim style that suits one's mood and taste are more important than cuts, colors, and shapes. There are a whole lot of varieties be it a classy pair of jeans, jacket, skirt, dress, or overalls, one needs to pick from to look daring and dashing in a denim attire this autumn/winter.
