Anne Hathaway's Airport Outfit Includes the Pants Every Frequent Flyer Avoids
By now, everybody knows that jeans—especially rigid, non-stretch ones—are best kept in your carry-on when traveling as opposed to on your person. After all, sitting in tight jeans can be difficult enough without adding in a long plane ride. And yet, that didn't stop Anne Hathaway from hopping on a flight to LAX last week in perhaps the stiffest possible style: cargo jeans.
For her trip back to Los Angeles, the Devil Wears Prada star (with the help of her stylist, Erin Walsh) paired a super-light-wash pair of cargo jeans from Isabel Marant with a lightweight pink sweater, a red blazer, and a patterned, silk scarf tied around her neck. With it, she added even more accessories that TSA no doubt made her take off, including black Bulgari sunglasses, a Gucci's Attaché crossbody bag, and most impractical of all for a security line, a pair of white, knee-high boots.
Though ultimately a bit illogical for air travel, there's no denying that Hathaway's airport look was an even 10, no deductions. Shop it and more rigid jeans below.
On Anne Hathaway: Veronica Beard Miller Dickey Jacket ($798); Isabel Marant Vayoneo Cargo Jeans ($514) and boots; Eolas Alba Crewneck ($275); Gucci Attache Large Shoulder Bag ($3590); Bulgari B.Zero1 Sunglasses ($433)
Shop rigid jeans:
Levi's iconic Ribcage jeans are probably the most flattering denim ever made.
When is Reformation not tempting me to make impromptu purchases?
These are the closest you're going to get to vintage jeans without having to dig through a thrift store.
These are giving just the right amount of grunge vibes.
