Levi's launches the REIIMAGINE campaign with Beyoncé to mark a special milestone that honors the brand's legacy in a creative way. The inspiration is drawn from Beyoncé's progressive work and the campaign revamps classic Levi's designs through the lens of Melina Matsoukas. The global initiative features work by cinematographer Marcell Rév, photography by Mason Poole, and more.
Beyoncé shares "My song ‘LEVII’S JEANS’ celebrates what I believe is the ultimate Americana uniform — something we all wear with pride. I am honored to work with Levi’s® to create quintessential American iconography. Denim on denim has often been seen through a male lens, so this reimagining campaign, which celebrates the iconic female perspective, is important to me. I look forward to exploring innovative ways for our visions to align in empowering women and honoring their strength."
