Designers from Marc Jacobs to Derek Lam showed '70s silhouettes in their spring collections, and now, the Gap has jumped on the love train with the newly-introduced High Rise Trouser and Sext Boot jeans inspired by the Me Decade, and available in stores later this month.
The newest denim styles "channel a streamlined '70s look," EVP of design Patrick Robinson said in a release, making the jeans a well-priced alternative for those looking to incorporate the runway look without having to pay a hefty price tag. (It's also an interesting moment to revisit for a brand launched in 1969.)
The look that's reemerging 30 years later takes it to the max, with flared bell-bottoms, platform shoes and hot pants, in Formica colors and disco glitz. Most of all, it's a sexy look anchored by jeans that find themselves much more universally flattering than their skinny predecessors.
