While most people might cringe and shudder at ’80s fashion making a comeback in 2026, there’s one retro trend rearing its head that fashion people are fans of. No, it’s not oversize costume jewelry or shoulder pads. Striped jeans are having a major moment this summer. From pinstripe varieties loved by Ayo Edebiri to the bold and colorful pairs Spanish women are wearing, striped jeans are poised to be this season’s biggest denim trend by far.
Although I can’t say I predicted it, personality-first denim is having a moment. Printed jeans, embellished denim, colorful washes, and pastel pairs are all signaling the fashion set’s move toward fun, bright, funky denim ahead of the new season. Ahead, see how the coolest people on Instagram are styling their striped jeans along with the best pairs to buy and more must-have summer items featuring this rising print trend.
