Baggy jeans are the new latest trend on the high street as seen on many celebs such as Kendall Jenner off-duty look and Rihanna.
Street style is always about looking and feeling amazing which means you’re comfortable. As people are slowly realising, skinny jeans are uncomfortable; they are becoming a thing of the past.

With all these different looks, the baggy jeans trend shows they can be worn for any occasion which is why they are so popular.
Here at Fashion North, we also ranked our top three baggy jeans:
These may look very simple but simple is effective. They go with everything and can be dressed up and down.
Black jeans are just perfect for any outfit with these as well you don’t need to worry about anything clashing.
Now we couldn’t finish this list without adding a pair of ripped baggy jeans, however, be warned people may ask to stitch patches on them.
I agree baggy jeans are so much more comfortable than skinny jeans. You tend to have baggy knees with skinny jeans which isn’t very becoming. Also Baggy jeans shows off a tiny waist, adding more sex appeal.
