In the Model's Eye

Models are among the happy few who can pull off both drainpipe and baggy, boyish jeans styles.

"Jeans have definitely become the casting-call uniform for top models as they consider themselves a bit above the law," said Dawn Wolf, editorial director for IMG, here, who lists APC, Paul & Joe, Superfine, To Be and Diesel as among models' favorites.

"Shalom Harlow loves Notify and Erin Wasson digs Chloé," said Wolf, adding that most models gravitate to so-called "authentic" denim brands over designer denim.

"Jeans are one of the things, along with shoes and bags, that girls are willing to spend a lot of money on as there are a million ways to wear them," said Emma Mackie, a booker at Marilyn in Paris, who added that skinny styles are the style du jour.

Popular brands with Marilyn models include Heatherette, Acne, Diesel and Miss Sixty.

"Models especially like Miss Sixty for its long lengths," explained Mackie. "But there are more and more cool labels out there that the girls are lapping up."

WWD asked a handful of models to speak about their favorite jeans and here's what they said:

LILY COLE: For busy British model Lily Cole, foraging for jeans in flea markets is way too time-consuming. "You have to be extremely lucky to land a pair that fits from a market stall," said Cole, who prefers to pop down to the sci-fi Bodymetrics machine at Selfridges in London to order made-to-measure jeans. Diesel and Lee also count among her favorite brands. "Everyone needs a pair of straight-legged, comfy jeans, but I'm really digging the skinny look at the moment," she said.

INES SASTRE
: Spanish model-turned-actress Ines Sastre, who is five months pregnant, said she misses being able to slip into a pair of jeans. "I love wearing comfortable, stylish pairs, like Earl jeans," said Sastre. "Whether it's a premium brand or a vintage pair, the price isn't really a factor. I just like low-waisted styles that fit like a second skin."

DARIA WERBOWY: The Canadian likes to swing between baggy and superskinny styles, and often borrows from her boyfriend's wardrobe. "I love men's oversize, baggy Levi's, but there's also a little store in New York, the name of which I'm going to keep secret, where I go for trashy Eighties skinny jeans that I own in every color," said Daria, adding that her most-treasured pair is a high-waisted, straight-legged Levi's 536 model that she's had for "donkey's years."

IRINA LAZAREANU: Budding rock star and model Irina Lazareanu, who's recording her first album with Sean Lennon, likes to strut around her local Marais neighborhood here in tighter-than-tight Earnest Sewn jeans. "A friend introduced me to the brand and they're the perfect fit," said Lazareanu, who has a hard time finding the right size, due to her petite frame and "lack of hips. It's important jeans are comfortable, as most women live in them — at least, I do," said Lazareanu. "And if I come across the right pair for my frame, I'm willing to shell out big bucks if necessary, as I see it as an investment."
