The globally renowned Levi’s® brand has found its perfect partner in the wildly popular South Korean K-pop girl group, NewJeans. Together, they’re commemorating the 150th anniversary of the Levi’s® 501® jeans – a timeless symbol of global fashion. This collaboration is more than just a celebration; it’s an invitation to fans worldwide to embrace their individuality.
The Power of Customisation
Levi’s® and NewJeans are not just showcasing the latest 501® fits and seasonal looks. They’re encouraging fans to take creativity into their own hands. With the help of Haus Tailors and other Levi’s® artist collaborators, the campaign introduces unique renditions of the classic 501® fits, highlighting the jeans’ potential as a canvas for genuine self-expression.
At Levi’s® Tailor Shops, enthusiasts can transform their 501® jeans with embroidery, patches, pleats, and more. Special designs from esteemed Japanese and Korean tailors, such as the Harajuku Tailor Shop and Garosugil Tailor Shop, are available for fans to craft their one-of-a-kind 501® masterpieces.
Dive into the Brand Film
A captivating brand film accompanies the campaign, showcasing NewJeans as they select, customise, and style their 501® jeans. The film culminates with a compelling question to the audience: “How will you wear yours?”
Additional campaign films spotlight NewJeans flaunting their vibrant seasonal looks, capturing the group’s dynamic spirit against contrasting warm and cool backdrops.
NewJeans expressed their enthusiasm for the collaboration, stating, “It’s been so rewarding to partner with a brand that has both an incredible past and looks towards the future. This campaign encourages people to discover and express their unique style by showing the different ways you can wear Levi’s®501®jeans and really make them your own. We are excited for our fans to explore how the collection can be customised with the Levi’s® Tailor Shop.
