Fashion enthusiasts everywhere will tell you that [denim on denim](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/versatile-denim) is a textbook faux-pas, but the New Denim Layers x Indigo Editorial in the magazine Casa Brutus proves that some exceptions to this rule can be made. The editorial in the Japanese-based magazine showcases some unconventional but alluring outfits featuring only denim.

The photographer for the New Denim Layers x Indigo Editorial is Katsuhide and the model is Stanny-Marks Stanworth. Stanworth is showcasing all that denim has to offer from bleached denim vests, to classic jeans to [denim-adorned shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/infinity-collection-1). The outfits, although rather unusual, portray a very [avant-garde quality](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hm-x-glenn-martens) and are certainly eye-catching. My favorite piece worn in the New Denim Layers x Indigo Editorial is the denim button-up that has been embellished with faded white checkers. The spread demonstrates the timeless characteristics and style options of denim.
