What do you know about Levi’s jeans? Online retailer Mr Porter takes us behind the scenes and inside the Levi’s Vintage Clothing brand. Denim heads will appreciate taking a peek inside the archival vaults of 100-year old garments, barely holding together in an acid-free shroud. Design Director Miles Johnson and his team documents vintage garments to faithfully capture “the spirit and heritage of American work wear,” from the San Francisco vaults, and recreates them at the LVC Amsterdam headquarters. You don’t have to go that far to get your hands on a Levi’s reproduction. Mr Porter carries some covetable denim pieces you can wear, now. Scroll down to watch the video.

Katy Perry was photographed visiting poverty-stricken children in Madagascar recently as part of a UNICEF initiative. ”In less than one week here in Madagascar, I went from crowded city slums to the most remote villages and my eyes were widely opened by the incredible need for a healthy life—nutrition, sanitation and protection against rape and abuse—which UNICEF are stepping in to help provide,” Perry said in a statement. She wore a pair of Black Orchid Denim’s Black Jewel Tencel Skinny floral jeans in California Raspberry.

Denim cut-off shorts are a girl’s ultimate secret (or not-so-secret) weapon when it comes to summertime sex appeal, and no one demonstrates that better than Candice Swanepoel. The latest Vogue Spain features a spread of the Victoria’s Secret model in dangerously short destroyed denim cut-offs, showing them off with all kinds of come-hither. We dare you not to stare.

Jessica Biel was spotted in LAX recently looking on-trend as ever with her wedge sneakers and ombre hair. She wore a pair of J Brand’s 811 Skinny Leg Jeans in Kingdom (comfy enough for travel, but stylish enough to be photographed in) and a long grey coat. We’re digging it. If you’re looking to pull off this look, don’t forget the giant “don’t photograph me!” shades and giant rock.
Grab a pair of J Brand’s 811 Skinny Leg Jeans in Kingdom before your next flight!
