Printed jeans are having a resurgence right now, along with other Y2K favourites such as body chains and pink sunglasses. We're not just talking about leopard print but wave prints, checkerboard and elaborate swirls, too. When it comes to printed denim, there is one place that really excels: Free People. The brand had a pop-up store at Wilderness Festival this weekend (and kindly invited us to join), and the printed jeans were a particular favourite.
India of The India Edit wore the wavey jeans by The Ragged Priest, which come in several colours including mint, peach and grass green. However, these jeans aren’t just for festivals or for those with a TikTok aesthetic—these are jeans our editors have been raving about for weeks. You can tone them down with a simple jumper or a white T-shirt and a blazer, so they aren’t just for maximalists. Keep scrolling to see and shop the printed jeans we love.
