The style is called the “Hippie Insane Remake.”
Katie Holmes is putting quiet luxury on the back burner in favor of craft-class chic. While the Dawson’s Creek alum has grown a street style cult following by wearing effortlessly understated pieces that almost border on nondescript, she leaned into the maximalist trend on Friday in New York City. As Holmes headed to work at Barrymore Theatre for her Broadway production of Our Town, she wore a pair of polarizing patchwork skinny jeans that were the epitome of loud luxury.
Her sold-out slim-fit jeans from Kapital, which cost $2,370 and are called the “Hippie Insane Remake,” per Vogue, were a psychedelic medley of dopamine-fueling hues. The statement pants featured pieces of taupe suede, dark blue corduroy, animal print fabric, and hot pink velvet, creating a vibrant patchwork of color and texture.
While Holmes leaned into a DIY aesthetic with the Mod Podge-inspired piece, she chose some of her go-to sartorial staples for the rest of her outfit. The star’s slightly sheer black button-up top was anything but basic, thanks to some ruching at the waist. She also wore navy blue velvet ballet flats from ViBi Venezia and slung an oversized white leather tote bag while accessorizing with some celebrity street style staples: Oversized brown sunglasses and a mint green baseball cap.
Holmes made her eye-catching jeans the main character of her outfit by keeping her beauty look subtle and wearing her straight brown hair down and tucked behind her ears.
The actress is never one to shy away from a divisive fashion moment, but Holmes’s unique ability to make even the most out-there style pieces look wearable for the everyday person will ensure that her fans are scrambling for similar denim patchwork designs.
