Every Fashion Girl Will Go Crazy for This Unique Denim Detail

From skinny jeans and boyfriend iterations to denim frocks and skirts, there are countless indigo options out there at any given moment. But what will the cool girls be wearing next year? If 3.1 Phillip Lim's new spring 2017 collection is any indication, there's one detail that you should be looking out for on your denim pieces: interesting zippers. 

The designer sent a handful of zippered denim looks down the runway, including boyfriend jeans with zippers down the side—a twist on the current craze of side-stripe track pants. There was also a patchwork-style denim skirt that had a zippered detail on one side, revealing a thigh-high slit, as well as a dress with haphazard zippers. We love how 3.1 Phillip Lim took the traditional, potentially boring element and flipped it on its head, resulting in a definite trend in the making. 

Scroll down to see how 3.1 Phillip Lim interpreted the zippered denim trend for S/S 17!

Erin Fitzpatrick
Senior News Editor

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 12 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of senior news editor (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
