Buy it now: Spring blues

Three new spring discoveries to share.

I’ve yet to try B Sides jeans but I think now may be the time to make it happen. The new collection features two relaxed-fit styles designed to look like you’ve had them for years. Fey (above) in Leo dark sun fade is a straight-cut, slightly loose-thigh jean with a long rise, while Elissa (inspired by stylist Elissa Santisi) in Klein (below) is a wide-leg, slouchy fit that also sits on the natural waist. Buy here and here. Both styles are 100% cotton and made in the USA. (more…)

Juntae Kim AW22 by Felix Cooper

The AW22 collection by CSM graduate Juntae Kim muses on denim beyond workwear, with scalloped edges, corsetry structures, buckles, lacing and artfully slashed surfaces. It chimes with the less ordinary denim treatments seen in the SS22 collections at Louis Vuitton, Schiaparelli and Loewe (which I wrote about for Harrods magazine recently). (more…)
