This much-discussed denim trend is flaring up again.
During Sunday’s Super Bowl 2025 halftime show, Kendrick Lamar’s flared Celine jeans sparked a major fashion frenzy (and went instantly viral).
But the “Not Like Us” rapper’s not the only one reaching for bell-bottomed blues right now; just one day after the big game, Meghan Markle swapped her standard straight-leg denim for a pair of Veronica Beard Beverly Skinny Flare Jeans at the Invictus Games.
We’ve spotted similar styles on stars like Bella Hadid, Suki Waterhouse and Nicole Kidman — and even John Legend’s on board. (“Dead that we all roasted John for his flared jeans then the coolest guy in the world had them on for his Super Bowl halftime show,” the singer’s wife, Chrissy Teigen, captioned an Instagram Story post Sunday.)
In short, Alix Earle may be heralding the return of the skinny jean, but some aren’t quite ready to give bootcut denim the boot. Below, shop a selection of similar flares at a range of price points — all well more affordable than Lamar’s $1,300 style.
