Jess Cartner-Morley: this season, your jeans should be stiff, smart and straight

Julia Roberts Steals the Show at Venice Film Festival in a Stylish, Smart Pair of Jeans

In a bold move that's got fashion fans buzzing, Julia Roberts stunned the crowd on the Venice film festival red carpet wearing dark Versace jeans, paired with a pale striped blouse and tailored blazer. This unorthodox yet striking outfit marks what appears to be a new era in smart dressing – where jeans are no longer relegated to casual Saturday wear.

So, how can you pull off looking sharp in jeans? The key lies in the basics: well-tailored fits that skim your body, rigid denim for clean lines, and minimal stretch. Avoid sagging or dragging jeans at the knees, which can instantly ruin an otherwise put-together look. Opt for straight-leg styles instead – a type A personality that's always on point.

Playing down the jeans is not the answer to looking smart in them; rather, embracing their unique shape and silhouette is key. Add some visual interest with classic accessories like leather belts or elegant necklaces, which create a striking contrast between denim and refined fabrics.

A blazer and jeans are an unlikely yet effective power duo – much like how lipstick completes a bare face. The two styles complement each other beautifully, with the addition of texture and depth from materials like wool, crepe, or silk. Mix high-shine heels or loafers for polished results that elevate your outfit to new heights.

Sometimes it's the easy choice that ends up being smartest – and Julia Roberts' bold decision on the Venice red carpet shows that jeans can indeed be dressed up with style. If this look is good enough for a Hollywood A-lister, it's certainly a winning formula for elevating your everyday jeans-wearing experience to new levels of polish and sophistication.
