Karla Welch x Levi's

Every year, Levi's throws special events and create new styles to help celebrate the anniversary of the 501® Original jean — and this year it’s no different.

To celebrate the millions of different ways people customize their Levi’s®, they have teamed up with Karla Welch, renowned stylist and founder of xkarla, to craft a special collection of jeans, jackets, shirts and more.

For Karla, working with Levi’s® was an exercise in creating pieces that will be iconic for generations to come. “I wanted to imagine what the future of vintage was,” she says. “If people inhabit Mars 200 years from now, what are the kids going to wear? This idea of creating something that would eventually become an iconic piece of vintage clothing is the basis of the whole collection.”

View the collection worn by some of Karla’s celebrity friends at the Levi's website.  Note: they are made in extremely limited supply, so get yours before they’re gone.  The collection includes the following:
