Katie Holmes' Latest Barrel Jeans Are Bigger Than Her Parachute Bomber Jacket

After dipping her toes into the season's most controversial denim trend, Katie Holmes is diving into the deep end.

On November 13, the 45-year-old actor continued to push the oversized-everything agenda in a pair of barrel jeans that were bigger than her $1,545 reversible patchwork parachute bomber jacket by Marfa Stance.

Seriously, these are not like her subtle barrel jeans, which eased her into to the trend with a slightly curved silhouette. This time, Holmes went for the baggiest pair she could find, which also featured a frayed, cropped hem that further emphasized the balloon effect of her multi-toned denim pants.

If that wasn't enough drama for one fit, Holmes layered her parachute bomber over a creamy white sweater with a gargantuan turtleneck collar, topping everything off with aviators and her favored Khaite tote bag. In fact, the only item in her outfit that wasn't purposefully oversized were her square-toed Acne loafers, which still feature an unconventional shape.

Overall, this New York City look fits right in with Katie Holmes' fall 2024 aesthetic, which has been built upon extra-large outerwear, baggy denim, and ludicrously capacious bags that could your entire life in their pouch.

As for her latest foray into the controversial barrel-leg trend, I'd say the style has fully reached mainstream appeal—at least, among those of us actively avoiding the inevitable return of skinny jeans. But let Katie Holmes serve as a warning: Once you start embracing the curved silhouette, your pants will just keep getting bigger.
