    Yes, You Can Wear Double Denim. Here's How...

    This summer, denim isn’t just a wardrobe staple, it's a fashion must-have. Double denim, or wearing it head-to-toe, has never been more on trend. From the catwalk to the high street, brands are offering the versatile fabric in a range of silhouettes and finishes. There is a way to double up your denim to suit any style.

    This summer, denim isn’t just a wardrobe staple, it's a fashion must-have. Double denim, or wearing it head-to-toe, has never been more on trend.

    This summer, denim isn’t just a wardrobe staple, it's a fashion must-have. Double denim, or wearing it head-to-toe, has never been more on trend. From the catwalk to the high street, brands are offering the versatile fabric in a range of silhouettes and finishes. There is a way to double up your denim to suit any style.

    If jeans aren’t your thing, double up your denim jacket with a denim skirt. The length and pleat in this Acne Studios skirt makes it work-appropriate, and we're also loving how this has been styled with belt showing how versatile the denim jacket is.

    Who says you can’t do denim for the office? This Bottega Veneta suit means business. Look for pieces with clean lines and tailored cuts for a fresh take on the power suit.

    If head-to-toe denim is a scary thought, then take inspiration from this MiH look. Break up your ensemble with a crisp white shirt (or any shirt, for that matter) for a chic but smart outfit.

    If you’re after a relaxed way to do double denim, then this APC smock top and chinos are the perfect pairing. Team with your summer sandals and you are good to go. However, don’t be afraid to mix up different shades, colours and washes to break up the look.

    If you’re a girly girl then look for feminine pieces with pretty details.
