Suki Waterhouse Just Wore So Many Key 2025 Trends With Her Favourite Anti-Skinny Jeans

Despite being born in 1992, few embody chic, 1970s-inspired style quite like Suki Waterhouse.

With her love of lace garments, bell-bottom trousers, and a warm palette of golds, browns, and greens, the multi-hyphenate performer has cultivated a signature aesthetic that somehow feels both entirely unique and right on trend. Stepping out in New York this week, Waterhouse emerged in an outfit that reminded me exactly why she’s one of my style icons. Despite her outfit containing several key 2025 trends, her look felt uncomplicated and effortless—the exact qualities I strive to achieve in my own wardrobe.

Whilst skinny jeans are currently staging a comeback (yes, really), Waterhouse sidestepped the trend in favour of a pair of mid-blue flared jeans. Designed with a voluminous cut that skims the thigh before dramatically flaring out from the knee, her jeans created an element of movement and drama within her outfit that felt perfectly in tune with the free-spirited ethos of her well-cultivated style. Tapping into the denim trend that reemerged on the runway this season, Chloé’s boho-inspired spring/summer 2025 collection was rife with the ’70s-adjacent design, signalling a return of the anti-skinny denim is due to hit soon.

But the jeans were only the beginning. Waterhouse layered her look with a fluffy caramel coat and accessorised with the highly covetable Toteme T-Lock clutch bag—nodding to the faux fur coat and clutch bag trends that are soaring right now—while balancing her vintage leanings.

What truly sets this look apart, however, is its innate Parisian flair. Waterhouse’s styling feels like it could have been plucked straight from the streets of Le Marais. For decades, Parisians have embraced the ’70s-inspired aesthetic that Waterhouse channels so seamlessly. It’s no wonder Waterhouse nails it so well—her approach aligns perfectly with the core tenets of Parisian dressing: ease, comfort, and quiet confidence.
