The 3 Pairs Of Jeans Set To Elevate Your Everyday Wardrobe
LA-based label PAIGE delivers jeans that are a cut above the rest – and now the brand’s leading looks have landed on NET-A-PORTER
The perfect pair of jeans is a building block for any wardrobe, yet they can also be one of the hardest pieces to shop for. Not only is there an overwhelming array of washes and styles to choose from today, but fit is paramount. The silhouette, pocket placement and trouser length all play a powerful role in how a pair of jeans will look, feel and ultimately function with your everyday staples.
Paige Adams-Geller probably knows this better than anyone. She began her career working as one of the industry’s most sought-after fit models and saw firsthand how clothes can sculpt and enhance the body. Modeling for leading denim brands across Los Angeles, Adams-Geller soon learned the preferred techniques of different designers and witnessed the level of craftsmanship needed to make a truly amazing pair of jeans. In 2004, she utilized all of this unofficial training to launch her own label, PAIGE, which, unsurprisingly, champions the perfect fit as its core philosophy.
“Fit is our foundation. I started out my career as the top fit model in the denim industry, where I mastered all of the details that go into achieving the perfect fit,” says Adams-Geller. “When I launched PAIGE, I made sure that no item goes into production without being wear-tested to ensure that it is comfortable, flattering, high quality and will stand the test of time, because denim truly is the foundation of every woman’s wardrobe.”
Eighteen years later and PAIGE is one of LA’s leading labels, its meticulous tailoring still setting the brand apart from the competition. Every item is washed, then wear-tested to ensure that both the fit and comfort factor are on point to ensure you’ll want to wear your jeans every day. Indeed, PAIGE is all about creating denim that will go the distance in your wardrobe; producing designs that have a timeless appeal. As a result, the team refuses to yield to passing trends, choosing instead to focus on classic silhouettes that can be dressed up or down for almost every event in your diary.
“Look to PAIGE for forever jeans that will work for any occasion and flatter your figure
”
This month, PAIGE launches on NET-A-PORTER for the first time, and there are three pairs of jeans in particular that our buyers are excited about. All are cut using the brand’s signature ‘transcend vintage’ fabric, which emulates pre-loved denim, but also offers a modern, comfortable stretch for that soft, lived-in feel from the outset.
These hero silhouettes include the ‘Genevieve’ – a classic ’70s shape, featuring a high waistband and wide flare kicking out from the knee, which makes for a leg-lengthening, elongating fit. Team the dark indigo wash with silk blouses or camisoles for easy evening elegance.
Next up is the ‘Leenah 32’, another wide-leg style sitting high on the waist. However, unlike the ‘Genevieve’, this design curves out more from the hip, offering a looser fit over thighs. Cut to 32 inches, our buyers have selected these jeans in a classic dark indigo and black wash, best paired with tailored shirts, cozy knitwear and tight tanks come summer.
Finally, meet ‘Cindy’, a timeless pair of high-waisted, straight-leg jeans that fall at the ankle and deliver a slim fit. This cut reigns supreme because of its versatility and staple-worthy style credentials, so look to PAIGE for forever jeans that will work for any occasion and flatter your figure.
