It's Here: The 2025 Version of Skinny Jeans

If you cringe a bit every time you see the words “skinny jeans are back”, I get it. They’re not for everyone and you may feel like you’ve been there, done that. But I’m here to share that there’s a new skinny-jean trend that’s a bit different and that feels fresh right now. In fact, I’ve noticed several celebrities and influencers have been wearing the style in recent weeks, including Emily Ratajkowski who was photographed wearing a pair a few days ago.

In case you haven’t yet guessed, the specific skinny-jean trend I’m referring to is skinny flares. I’m sure by now you’ve heard that flare jeans are also back, so it makes perfect sense that pairs that combine the two trends are gaining momentum by the day. Heads up: Most of the skinny flares on the market have some stretch in them, and that’ll give you the most authentic slim-fitting interpretation of the trend (and they’re comfortable, so that’s a plus). If you want some styling inspiration, keep scrolling to see how chic Ratajkowski made hers look with a leather jacket and sneakers, and shop some of the most elite pairs of skinny flare jeans on the market.
