11 Purple Jeans For A More Colorful Wardrobe 

By  Emily Konatella

LAST UPDATED - December 11, 2023

The purple jeans below are a stylish way to add a splash of color to your closet— whether it's pale lavender, electric purple, vibrant violet, or subtle plum.

But don't let the unconventional color fool you; these versatile styles can easily be dressed up or down for any setting. Balance their bold hues with neutral basics like white tees, denim jackets, and black turtleneck sweaters.

Add a Dose of Color to Your Closet With These 11 Purple Denim Pants For Women

The key to keeping your purple jeans looking vibrant for longer is to soak them overnight in a sinkful of hot water mixed with a cup or two of white vinegar. Done before the first wash, this simple treatment will lock in the fabric dyes and prevent them from bleeding onto other garments. Launder your new purple jeans on their own for the first few washes to ensure they won't ruin other light-colored items in the load.
