Debbie Harry (Blondie) collaborates with Levi's for 505C jeans launch
Punk icon Debbie Harry (Blondie) performed - on July 19, in New York - during a live event to launch Levi’s 505C jean, a style inspired by the 505s that the singer wore in a now-iconic image by photographer Richard Young from a 1978 performance in Tokyo (see it below). 71 year old Harry, while performing at New York’s Bowery Ballroom, stood onstage while a tailor took a pair of scissors to her jeans - turning them into instant cutoff shorts.
The new jeans have been created usin the vintage 505s as patterns for the updated version, slimming the silhouette just slightly on the straight-leg, mid-rise style (retail price should be around $98-$148).
