• 'Denim pants' are now a thing and can be purchased for £241.
  • The super-revealing denim short-shorts have caught the internet's attention, and you're bound to spot a pair if you're heading to a musical festival in 2019.
  • Y/Project's extreme denim shorts first hit the runway in 2018 for Paris Fashion Week.

As we approach the summer, everyone is scrambling to find the perfect look for festival season. And Parisian fashion label Y/Project has just launched a polarising piece of clothing that is probably going to be a big talking point in 2019.

We are, of course, talking about Y/Project's 'denim pants', and yes, they are every bit as confusing as they sound.

Carrying a $315 (£241) price tag (on the ssense website), Y/Project's 'navy denim pants' have pretty much set the internet on fire, as People reports. Described as 'denim brief-style shorts,' it's easy to imagine the unforgettable item becoming a surprise Coachella hit, for anyone looking to show some serious skin:
