DALA Calla Straight Jean vs DALA Curve Jean

Both are rigid 100% organic cotton Italian denim made in Paraguay by DALA, so the real split is silhouette. The Calla Straight is the safer pick for most shoppers: a mid-rise straight leg with a button fly that reads clean and works with more outfits. The Curve Jean is the statement piece, with an arced barrel leg and stitch panelling that suits people who want a sculptural shape and a deep black finish. Owners of rigid DALA denim report it holds its shape and softens slowly; the Curve runs slightly large, so size down if you want a closer fit.

• Choose the Calla Straight Jean if you want a classic mid-rise straight leg with a button fly that fits into everyday and work wardrobes.
• Choose the DALA Curve Jean if you want a relaxed barrel leg with panelling and a deep black wash as a statement piece.
