5 ways to wear denim, according to Jennie and Calvin Klein

Presently, it’s apropos to mention that anything Jennie touches turns to gold. The Blackpink lead rapper and Calvin Klein’s ambassador was lensed in the American label’s latest Spring 2024 campaign, donning a selection of elevated denim essentials that exude an air of timeless cool and refinement.

Presented alongside the ready-to-wear collection are updated styles from the Calvin Klein ‘Intense Power’ and ‘Minimalist’ intimate wear line — similarly donned on Jennie — that showcase the K-pop icon’s distinctive confidence and bold sensuality. Below, the myriad ways to dress in denim, according to the iconic duo this season.
In cyclical fashion, the noughties staple famously dubbed the ‘Canadian Tuxedo’ is making a major comeback. This Spring, consider taking on the denim-on-denim look with Calvin Klein’s ‘Classic Trucker Jacket’ and a pair of ‘Ultra High Rise Wide Leg Fit Jeans’ in a faded blue ‘Pacifico’ wash. For a playful twist, try tucking in the denim top asymmetrically.
Sensual dressing is not necessarily about baring skin. Sometimes, the suggestion of what’s really underneath can be a more provocative proposition. Put on a long-sleeved outerwear, unzipped or buttons undone, at your own discretion.
Every dress has its day, and now is just the time for the Calvin Klein ‘Sculpt Denim Bodycon Dress’ to shine. The hardwearing textile also lends a flattering contoured look to the thigh-baring style and is perfect for casual daytime get-togethers.
There can be more than fifty shades of blue when it comes to denim looks, but that simply means that an all-white denim ensemble is an instant standout. Take cues from Jennie herself, and make the monochrome tank-top-and-denim-mini-skirt look your new go-to outfit.
On those “I have nothing to wear” bad wardrobe days, a trusty pair of denim jeans is never far away to help you look put together in a flash.
