Highand low-rise jeans. Breezy fits. Big bags. Sneakers with everything. More denim. Here's how we're playing it casual in 2024

The curated closet

Hold on to those skinny jeans (or don't). Roll up those T-shirt sleeves (if they still have sleeves). Crop the cropped top even higher (it's a bra now!).

Rethink every wardrobe staple. It's 2024 and fashion gurus are changing the rules again. Here are some of the biggest trends.

How we're doing denim. Jeans are playing to the extremes. They're either super-high-rise or hang really low. Delhi and London-based stylist Jahnavi Sharma, 24, predicts that waists will rise high. But Shruti Kathpal Madan, 33, founder and creative director of Delhi-based clothing brand Cilver, says "some people might take to the low-rise trend now that we've spent time with high rises." This goes for regular trousers too.

Shirts and the upper half. Exhale. Cropped tops may just leave shelves in 2024. "Oversized shirts will continue to be a trend-setting choice," says Nishtha Saluja, co-founder of Delhibased slow fashion brand with N., which focuses on Indian textiles. Sharma votes for easygoing, utilitydriven shirts and T-shirts as well. She believes it will be a year of "asymmetrical tops and layered tank tops". More 00s styles for Gen Z to revel in.
