It’s no secret that jeans are a wardrobe staple, no matter the time of year. But lately, celebrities are getting creative with their denim choices, opting to wear the fabric in dress, skirt, and skort form. And it’s clear that these trends are here to stay through the fall.

An unexpected denim style that’s swept through Hollywood is dresses, with stars like Jennifer Lopez, Martha Stewart, and Michelle Obama wearing them during casual coffee runs, while lounging at home, and at formal events. Reese Witherspoon was spotted at the Leagues Cup 2023 final in a short denim skirt, while Kerry Washington opted for a maxi version on Instagram.

Taylor Swift and Hilary Duff even brought back denim skorts recently, proving that there are so many fun ways to wear the material outside of classic jeans.
