The Texan Tuxedo is once again at the height of cool, and to understand its ups and downs, we should look to the silver screen
The power that comes with an on-screen wardrobe is formidable. If the fit hits, the legacy of costumes transcend the screen and spread to the streets. Take Kit Carruthers in Terrence Malick’s– celebrating fifty years on screens this year, Kit’s wardrobe has outlasted his complicated character, leading him to become a double denim poster boy in the present day.
From hoedown to hip-hop, double denim has formed many iterations over the years but now, has returned to its roots. The coolest way to nail the trend of late is to look like a contemporary cowboy; on your moodboard should be Francis Ford Coppola’s, both films focus on troublesome teens in barren Stateside landscapes and unintentionally, have become double denim masterclasses for the masses.
To really grind a classicist’s gears, double denim can be viewed through a similar lens to tailoring. Both are relative in sharing the essence of coordinating top and bottom , but double denim is like the naughty, nonchalant little brother of tailoring. He bunks off class and smokes behind the bike sheds; the other is the quarterback school sweetheart. It’s James Dean vs James Stewart. It’s a casual take on a uniform which just doesn’t take itself as seriously as it’s buttoned-up counterpart.
