How to Style Flare Jeans in 2025 for Your Chicest Season Yet

I get it: Figuring out how to style flare jeans in 2025 takes a bit of trial and error. After a decade-plus out of the spotlight, the boho silhouette is very much back in the conversation, thanks to labels like Chloé, Celine, and Diesel.

Flared denim can go wrong, but with the right styling tricks—cribbing just enough inspiration from the ’70s, aughts, and current fashion trends—you’ll ace the look. Whether you want to look like a lady of the canyon or an off-duty model, here’s how to style flare jeans with (almost) zero effort.

1. With a leather jacket

Despite their association with the ’70s, flares can actually be pretty timeless; it all comes down to styling. In this look, for example, the faded wash and just-right length give the impression of a well-loved pair. Styled with an easy leather shirt and sandals or slim loafers, you’ll look current without leaning too far into trends. I love that asymmetrical blouse, but you can also go for, say, a white tank top or T-shirt underneath.
