Our ongoing nostalgia for everything noughties and nineties tends to take centre stage when it comes to resurging trends. As of late, we’ve welcomed back a variety of sentimental styles – from ballet flats (Sienna Miller had no trouble rocking a pair of bow-detailed shoes back in the noughties) to preppy gingham skirts (Rachel Green immediately comes to mind), and now – courtesy of this pair from high street hero Marks & Spencer – Mom Jeans, which have essentially been dubbed the staple of the summer.

Designed in a typical retro fit that sits high on the waist and effortlessly tapers through the leg, the M&S Mom Jeans are the ultimate throwback staple that more than deserves a spot in your everyday wardrobe. Crafted from stretch cotton, these iterations do what Mom jeans do best – offer vintage-inspired style while delivering on comfort, especially on those casual days when rigid, unforgiving denim simply won’t do.

Available in six washes, there’s guaranteed to be a shade that suits you. From classic denim colourways like light and dark blue, to inky indigo, sleek black, and fit-for-summer ecru (which, unfortunately, is already close to selling out), there are plenty of outfit formulas just begging to be worn.

Consider styling the blue versions with crisp white shirts or the M&S favourite Bubble-Hem Puff Sleeve Top in red – a striking contrast for when the weather turns balmy. For now, while we continue to battle unpredictable spring showers (the sun can certainly be deceiving during this transitional period), wear them with boxy white tees and lightweight trench coats. Sezane’s version is a favourite if you’re after an outerwear staple that’ll see you through season after season.
