I just had a flashback as I flipped through the Constance Jablonski Harper’s Bazaar Spain spread featured in the April 2011 issue. The denim looks made me revisit my childhood days, when I used to rock jeans like the ones featured.
Photographed by Nico and styled by Juan Cebrian, the editorial takes us back to the late 80s and early 90s, when high-waisted, elastic jeans were in. They were also the days when overalls and jumpers were cool, especially in a worn-out look. Influenced by these retro decades, fashion recycles itself once more through labels such as Christian Dior, Mango and D&G. Updated with a dark blue wash, these modernized classics are rather pleasing.
The Constance Jablonski Harper’s Bazaar Spain spread makes these old-school jeans look cool again.
