When Dani Michelle provides trend recommendation, you’re taking it. The stylist, who works with Hailey Bieber, Kendall Jenner, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, and Daisy Edgar Jones, was not too long ago named the artistic director of Joe’s Denims, and StyleCaster obtained the possibility to select her mind about fall developments, learn how to construct a wardrobe, and what seems to be she’s sick of seeing.
In the case of aesthetics, Michelle is the epitome of effortlessly cool and extremely female. She clothes her shoppers in dishevelled fits paired with crop tops, robes that go away little to the creativeness (I’m nonetheless not over the Schiaparelli quantity Jenner wore on the 2024 Academy Gala final month), and denims desires are manufactured from. The whole lot she does is contemporary and painfully stylish. All of this to say, Michelle had some fairly refreshing and presumably controversial trend takes—one being that she’s really right here for the thin denims revival and “loves” the barrel pattern. Whereas I’m obsessive about the horseshoe silhouette, I’m not leaping on the probability to deliver skinny denims again into my denim rotation. Nonetheless, it appears I’d have to get with this system contemplating the spring/summer season 2025 runways of labels like Proenza Schouler, Prada, and Marni have been crammed with tremendous fitted pants.
Michelle can also be very into cropped straight-leg denims as they’re “actually nice” for boots. She particularly suggests Joe’s Denims The Margot—which provides a high-rise match and stops proper on the ankle. Her Joe’s Denims appointment couldn’t come at a greater time—since as of late, denim is having a serious second. Along with skinny and barrel, we’re seeing a heightened curiosity in dishevelled pairs (which may be present in Michelle’s new Joe’s Denims capsule assortment), cargo types, and naturally jorts.
