When it comes to flared jeans, you'll never be disappointed. They're figure hugging, leg lengthening and cascade perfectly over a pair of pointed-toe heels or boots, making them a timeless capsule wardrobe staple. They also - inexplicably - suit everyone. But, as wonderful as they are, shopping for any type of jeans often proves a tedious task. Luckily, we've scrolled through hundreds, if not thousands, in pursuit of the perfect pair of denim flares.

Though a flared jean is typically associated with the style of the 60s and 70s, they've remained a popular denim wardrobe staple and have been spotted everywhere. A-listers are, of course, in favour of the flared jean. Take VB for example, whose love of the flared jean spans decades, proving that the denim style is truly timeless. Other celebs to include Margot Robbie and Bella Hadid (who styles hers with an oversized leather jacket and boots) are also fans of the denim trend, further exemplifying their versatility and styling potential.

If you're still unconvinced that the 70s staple can be worn in 2024, simply look to the runways, where numerous iterations of flared jeans were spotted on the catwalk for spring/summer 2024, from Miu Miu, to Gucci. Our prediction? Just like skinny jeans and low-rise jeans, flared jeans are about to be back - in a big away.

After searching tirelessly, we narrowed down the best flared jeans that you can buy now.

SHOP: The Best Flared Jeans

Made with super soft recycled cotton, these Zara flare jeans come in three different washes - mid-blue, light-blue and white. Pair with heeled boots for winter, or a pair of sling-backs this summer.

We sense these Mango jeans will soon sell out - and for good reason. They have a flattering high waisted fit, which, paired with the flared leg, help to create the illusion of longer legs.

In between a flare and a bootcut, these dark wash Diesel jeans are made from stretch denim that hugs the body from hips to knees.

Made with River Island's comfort stretch denim, these flared jeans adapt to your body shape and are extremely flattering on any body type. We love that they're available in short, regular and long, to help you find the perfect pair for you.

These Maje flared jeans feature embroidered detailing for an even more boho look and feel. Pair with sling back black heel for a chic evening outfit.

Made with stretch denim, these Arket jeans are as comfy as they are flattering. They come in a flattering mid length fit and are available in light and dark blue.

Meghan Markle's skinny jean brand of choice, Frame, has a range of comfortable and chic flared jeans to choose from. We particularly enjoy these dramatic flare jeans for a statement piece that say: 'I'm here'.

Crafted from 93% cotton with a slight stretch for comfort, these Paige flare jeans deserve a spot in your wardrobe. True-to-size and versatile, you can wear these on any occasion, from brunch to night on the town.

In case you haven't noticed, dark wash is trending, and these jeans are great for a petite figure, featuring visible front seams for a bohemian take on a classic flared denim. Also available in regular length.

For a classic pair of jeans that are reliable and stylish, look to Marks & Spencer. These high-waisted flared jeans are available in a range of sizes and come in three lengths- short, regular and long.

What makes flared jeans so flattering?

Flared jeans flatter every body type, so it's no surprise that they've remained popular throughout the years. They cinch the waist and elongate the legs for an effortlessly feminine look, unlike baggy jeans which take on a more masculine form.

How should I style flared jeans?

Pair flared jeans with a fitted top and statement belt for a chic 70s-inspired look, or opt for a cropped sweater and ankle boots for a modern twist on a retro wardrobe classic.
