This 152-Year-Old Pendant Gives Daisy Edgar-Jones's Denim Look a French Girl Feel
She looked every bit the Parisian.
After spotting a surplus of French girl denim at Paris Fashion Week, I was shocked to learn the locals love Levi's.
Turns out, the French feel comes from the silhouette and shade, not the brand. Daisy Edgar-Jones exemplified this on her latest outing. Though she's British in real life (and her new film Sense and Sensibility), her latest press tour look could've been on loan from a French girl's wardrobe.
Giving major "I just won the vintage lottery while antiquing in Paris" energy, Edgar-Jones wore a beige blazer-style blouse from John Galliano Spring 2006. Her stylist Dani Michelle then paired the posh blouse with sky blue Levi's 501 Jeans with lightly flared legs.
Daisy Edgar-Jones re-wore her go-to Levi's jeans with a 152-year-old Boucheron pendant.
The jeans are definitely worth an impulse purchase, but the pièce de résistance shimmered atop her neckline: an 1873-era pendant by Boucheron. The 152-year-old medallion boasted yellow gold and silver hardware beneath a glistening diamond border. The pendant dangled from a classic '90s-inspired black choker.
That's right, Edgar-Jones casually showcased a pendant that debuted in the same century as Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility. Now that's a master class in IYKYK method dressing.
Take a moment to appreciate the archival Boucheron piece up close.
Edgar-Jones has been perfecting the method dressing formula all press tour long. (See: the actor's archival Chloé corset at the L.A. premiere.) In fact, they've leaned into this design detail, specifically, multiple times.
Last month, she arrived at the London premiere in a custom Vivienne Westwood corset dress, a burgundy velvet choker, and another Boucheron pendant. According to the French jewelry house, the yellow gold, silver, and agate adornment dates back to 1877 and once doubled as a locket. At the time, it could carry a portrait or even a lock of a loved one's hair.
Being Boucheron's ambassador, Edgar-Jones has no issue securing centuries-old styles.
As Boucheron's brand ambassador, Edgar-Jones has an all-access pass to the label's archives. However, her rarest pulls aren't reserved for the red carpet. Wearing 150-year-old bling with Levi's (straight from the denim drawers of Dakota Johnson, Hailey Bieber, and Beyoncé) is what makes her choice styling so iconic (and so Parisian).
Getting your hands on such a historical piece—especially without the assistance of a stylist like Michelle—might be a challenge. But by shopping the Levi's styles below, Edgar-Jones's goes-with-everything bottoms could appear on your doorstep before Sense and Sensibility releases in theaters on Oct. 16.
