Quite possibly the most iconic garment in the entire canon of fashion history, jeans are the hero staple of any wardrobe.

Beloved by all, they have garnered a global following, stretching from the high street to Hollywood and beyond.

Simone Ashley is among the A-lister fan club of durable denim, taking to social media on Tuesday to showcase her latest low-key look with friends and fans.

The Bridgerton actress rocked high-waisted jeans in her latest snap

Sharing a serene image to her Instagram Stories, the 29-year-old could be seen sporting a pair of high-waisted jeans teamed with a lemon yellow tank top. She wore her raven curls down loose for the moment, facing away from the window while accompanied by a canine companion. 

Once a staple of 1940s utility fashion, high-waisted jeans rose to iconic status in the 1970s, adorning disco queens and rock muses alike. Revived in the 90s by minimalists and reimagined in the 2010s by street-style stars, their silhouette sculpts, elongates, and empowers during everyday wear. 

Today, high-rise denim remains a sartorial constant - a timeless choice for those with a penchant for vintage themes.

The actress championed Isabel Marant for her Texan getaway

Simone’s adoration for dazzling denim even extends to the dress department. Earlier this month, the former Sex Education star shared a glimpse inside her Texas getaway, soaking up the sunshine in a western-chic look that perfectly leaned into Southern Belle glamour.

The Coperni muse frolicked among the lavender in Austin, sporting Isabel Marant’s Dolizi Mini Dress - a strapless number crafted from light-wash denim and featuring a cinched waistband, a mini silhouette and a ruffled peplum accent.

She paired the playful piece with some pristine white cowboy boots topped with black accents, while styling her hair in a polished updo and arming herself with some oval-cut sunglasses and a Chanel crossbody bag in black quilted leather.

From retro trousers to Noughties mini silhouettes, denim continues to dominate the wardrobe of It-girls like Simone.
