My Boyfriend’s Back

Tagged:  •    •  


…and I want to steal his jeans! That seemed to be the consensus at Colette’s Current/Elliott “rip and repair” event earlier this week. Company designers Emily Current and Meritt Elliott were on hand to help lucky guests customize their favorite “boyfriend jean” design from the brand’s Fall ‘09 collection. And while the legendary Parisian boutique is currently the only spot in Paris to carry Current/Elliott, it already has a chic following. Not only did Emmanuelle Alt stop by but Erin Wasson even slipped out of her own RVCA event to chat with the gals saying she was a huge fan. While you might not be able to get your hands on Fall just yet, fear not! There are boyfriend shorts and jeans in the Spring and Resort ‘09 collections right now. Get customizing, chicettes!
