Le De Nîmes Wide-Leg High-Rise Recycled-Denim Jeans

Aside from being a charming city in the South of France, Nîmes is also the birthplace of denim (de Nîmes, denim, get it?), which is why Gallic designer Simon Porte Jacquemus named these jeans after it. Sculpted from partially recycled denim, they’re cut to sit high on the waist before falling into wide legs before signing off with a brand patch. Pull them on with a vibrant, silky top and one of the label’s playful Le Chiquito bags, we say.

Essentially pared back and minimalist, self-taught French designer Simon Porte Jacquemus pairs tradition and modernity with playful irreverence. Classic references meet with unexpected proportions and distinctive details, in collections that are youthful, fresh, yet with a timeless elegance.
