It’s official—skinny jeans are back. In a rare public appearance, at the Schiaparelli Haute Couture show no less, Emma Watson took on fashion’s most divisive jean style with a playful take on proportion that included grey skinnies, an architectural blazer and chunky Doc Martens for good measure. What makes this outfit so noteworthy isn’t just the return of skinny jeans (though we must admit, we’re completely won over), it’s the impact that comes from the perfectly balanced structure of the look.
The harmony is all based on dimension, with the dramatic lapels and cropped silhouette of the Schiaparelli blazer, contrasting the slim cut jeans. Add in the clomping, flat sole chelsea boots, and Emma has created a striking silhouette worthy of Couture Fashion Week.
