Denim & Jeans
Barrel-leg jeans — also called balloon jeans — curve outward through the thigh and then taper in at the ankle, creating a rounded, barrel-like shape. The trending silhouette is roomy at the top of the leg but narrow at the hem.
The curved leg is the whole point: instead of a straight or tapered line, the denim bows out around the thigh and pulls back in at the ankle, so the jeans hold a three-dimensional shape. It's one of the defining denim trends of recent seasons.
Because the volume sits high on the leg, barrel jeans balance best with a fitted top and are often worn cropped to show the ankle taper.
