For Jennifer Lopez, a trip to New York isn’t just a trip to New York. It’s a trip with photographers following your every move. If you’ve been keeping an eye on Jennifer Lopez’s travels, you may have noticed that she’s been spending a lot of time in the Big Apple in 2024. As someone whose job it is to report on how J.Lo (and others, of course) dresses, I’ve been studying her New York outfits throughout the year and have found that she favors a somewhat casual, yet glamorous and sophisticated style in New York. Speaking of casual, Lopez often wears jeans in New York, but there are certain trends she’s been wearing during her 2024 trip.
The trend is baggy jeans, but not just any baggy jeans. Baggy jeans with pleats or a paper bag waist. Lopez often wears crop tops or fitted tops, so it’s no surprise that this voluminous denim trend is a favorite of hers. The best outfits include pieces that balance each other out.
Keep scrolling to see some of Lopez’s pleated jeans outfits this year – the first two are from last week, but if you like them, take the opportunity to shop the trend for yourself.
