Next spring's new denim lines range from North Korea's first-ever jeans export to reimagined Victoria Beckham styles and Dior Homme pants (for girls) selling at over $1,000.
For high-end hipsters
Hudson Jeans, which recently made waves with its racy advertising campaign starring Mick Jagger's daughter Georgia, has announced a higher-end denim line for spring. According to Women's Wear Daily, the first collection will follow the themes of 'minimalist,' 'resurrection,' 'D.I.Y.' and 'subversion,' with silhouettes including skinny, baggy, high-waisted and flare. Prices will range from $100 to $450.

For luxe lovers
Dior Homme jeans, which have gained popularity among women, especially as a result of the 'boyfriend jean' trend, will become available in designated women's styles next spring. Part of the label's Petite Taille line, the range will consist of ultraskinny jeans with stretch elements for the perfect fit. The new collection will go on sale at international Dior Homme stores early next year, with jeans costing from $407 to $1,185.

For fans of the 'used look'
Stefano Gabbana, one half of Italian deisgn duo Dolce & Gabbana, has announced a new denim line for spring via his Twitter account. Details are scarce but the look of the collection seems to feature 'used' and 'destroyed' looks with very visible logo tags on the back pockets.

For Beckham bunnies
Even though fashion aficionados didn't like it at the beginning, Victoria Beckham is becoming a force to be reckoned with in fashion. Following her successful and critically acclaimed dress collection, the former Spice Girl will relaunch her denim line in spring, after the old range was dropped by retailers. The new styles, named simply Victoria Beckham Denim, will focus on cigarette silhouettes and 'jeggings' with the occasional boyfriend jean and denim jacket. Prices start at $235.
