In simple terms, jeans and a white shirt may not feel like something to write home about, but the brilliance of this outfit is all in the detail. Last autumn we saw the barrel-cut style come to prominence, and whilst it was put on the back burner as the wide-leg silhouette took hold for spring and summer, it’s evident that fashion people are set to pull out this striking jeans style once again.
The composition of these jeans with a white shirt plays into the innate French style of classic staples with a modern edge. Though Kunakey has opted for a striking wrap style, the outfit formula still works with that trusty white shirt we all have in our capsule wardrobes. And finally, the mesh shoes demonstrate sharp insight—this style has only recently infiltrated fashion circles. All together, the look makes an impact, even though the building blocks are easy to copy and paste. And if you’re keen to do so, I’ve found the pieces you’ll need to step out in this autumn-ready look.
