Is double denim ever acceptable?

😀

It's a bit Les Battersby.

Yes! I think I did a dark midi skirt with lighter or slightly similar denim shirt! I doubt anyone cares what I was wearing and if they did I didn’t care.

This is o e of those rules there to be broken. It's not for me, but based on what the young people around me are wearing, I'd say it's currently quite fashion forward.

It's too fine a line between cool and Michelle Fowler for me.

It looks fab if you're going to a Status Quo type event

My toddler looks cute in double denim...adults, no.

Everything on the DO list is also a DON'T to me 😁
Same here, except the oversized denim shirt. That could work if the weight and tone of the denim is right.
I also like black/white denim combined with different shades of blue, which is on the don't list.

I wore blue denim shirt and light grey jeans with a coloured top the other day. I felt like was ok!

Like this?

I do double denim. Dark on the bottom with lighter coloured shirt or blouse. I do oversized shirts over mom jeans. I even have lyocell denim dresses I wear over straight leg jeans with large turn ups. I wear a denim blazer with straight legs too. DH does rip the piss but I don't care!

Of course. I wore it today. Black straight-leg jeans and a light-weight, light blue oversized shirt.

great!

I've worn it & I'm in my 50's.
Not solely on it's own but layered under a cashmere jumper & a camel coat - in March. Here it is courtesy of the Whering App.

I wore double denim today- shirt and jeans ( straight, not skinny) beige linen blazer, sleeves rolled, cross body dark beige bag, similar coloured belt, trainers. My 22 year old said it looked great..it looked ok to me too

I wore it today as well. Denim jacket and jeans, with hoodie underneath. Jacket darker than the jeans.

I dont care if it is on trend or not. It is the only summer weight coat i have.

If it's good enough for Skakin Stevens it's good enough for me

I'm wearing it today in the form of a Chambray linen shirt with jeans & a Mac/leopard print boots.
I prefer this & fluid denim look lyocell shirts to the traditional stiff denim.

I’m very conflicted but I think sometimes it works. I have worn a light blue denim shirt with dark jeans but can’t imagine wearing a denim jacket with jeans. My DC ( in their twenties) frequently do and they always look great.
I wore it in the 80s though.

I've been wearing black denim dungarees with a cropped blue denim jacket. It looks fab and has definitely given my denim jacket a new lease of life. I think it's very much to do with attitude and if you wear it with confidence pretty much anything works.

Yeah but I think you need to be quite cool to pull it off

It worked for shakin stevens !

Lydia Tomlinson does it well

Les Battersby & Michelle Fowler

I love it.
For me it needs to be fairly matchy-matchy because that's the whole point.

I love denim dresses and dungarees too, and actually double denim gives me this look but without the need to shave my legs or have bathroom/loo dramas!
