While plenty of fads go by in a flash, celebrities never ditch their denim.
After all, although stars certainly have their pick of designer duds, they’re slipping on their favorite jeans just as regularly as the rest of us.
So whether you’re searching for sleek skinnies à la Kate Middleton’s or a baggy distressed pair like Rihanna’s, why not stock up on some of stars’ go-to styles?
Below, discover 15 denim brands with a leg up on the competition in A-listers’ eyes — from tried-and-true blues from Levi’s to “Bejeweled” denim beloved by Taylor Swift and Beyoncé.
Ética

The blueprint for Gigi Hadid’s outfits? Blue jeans from this sustainable denim brand. The model once told Vogue her “everyday Gigi look” includes a T-shirt and a pair of her “favorite jeans”: Ética’s boyfriend style.
She’s far from the label’s only famous fan, as Naomi Watts, Lucy Hale and Jennifer Lawrence also own pairs.

While stars have deep pockets to purchase pricey pants, not all of their favorites cost a mint. Case in point? Levi’s.
Although the brand made its first jeans back in 1873, plenty of stars are still hooked on its classic, no-fuss blues over 150 years later; Hailey Bieber, Kristen Stewart and Kylie Jenner are among those who’ve stepped out in styles like the bestselling 501 Shorts.
Sizes: 23 to 34 | Price Range: $59.50+ (although sales are frequent)

FAQ
What jeans are in style right now?
Want the skinny on skinny jeans? Gen Z famously “cancelled” the fitted denim in recent years, instead embracing wide-leg styles.
And while Y2K fashion is also having a major moment — with even Paris Hilton calling for the return of her beloved early-aughts low-rise denim — high-waisted styles continue to be a favorite of countless stars (and plenty of shoppers).
At the end of the day, the ideal pair of jeans is ultimately up to personal preference. Just ask Stacy London, who told Page Six Style she doesn’t pick pants based on trends.
“[I] don’t believe in [style] rules anymore,” she said, instead espousing that “personal style is based on the individual.”
