Forever on the hunt for that perfect pair of jeans? Look no further than Los Angeles-based luxury denim label Re/Done which prides itself on creating one-off unique jeans from pre-loved vintage Levi’s.
Recognised by their white leather patch on the waist band, each pair of second-hand Levi’s is hand-cut then re-sewn, and show varying degrees of distress based on the denim’s former life.
The jeans are manufactured in Downtown LA, using water saving methods and no harsh chemicals. Quantities are limited since each pair is handpicked. The brand has conveniently managed to simplify the tiresome process of searching for that perfect pair of vintage denim.
Re/Done already has a celebrity following including Lady Gaga and Kendall Jenner, and has featured some high profile and rising models in their campaigns like Erin Wasson (pictured wearing the high-rise cut), Bella Hadid and Kiwi-raised model Stella Maxwell. Three Re/Done styles, including the high-rise, straight leg and loose cut-off shorts, have just arrived in New Zealand, exclusively stocked at Fabric stores.
