How to choose between designer denim brands

Designer denim brands sit between denim specialists and luxury houses. Each has a distinct point of view. A.P.C. is known for minimal, rigid jeans that fade with wear. DSQUARED2 favors slim cuts and heavy distressing. Maison Margiela reworks classic shapes with deconstructed details. GANNI and Stella McCartney focus on relaxed women's fits and more responsible fabrics. Moschino brings bold prints and logos, and OFF-WHITE leans toward streetwear cuts. Stone Island focuses on fabric treatments and garment dyeing.

Fit varies more between these labels than within a single brand, so compare measurements on the women's size chart or men's size chart before ordering a brand for the first time. A.P.C. raw jeans run small and stretch with wear, while Italian labels often add stretch and fit truer from the start. European sizing is also common, so a size 28 in one label may not match a 28 in another.

For fashion-house pieces, see luxury jeans. For specialists focused on fit and fabric, see premium denim.

Are A.P.C. jeans worth it?
