Sydney Sweeney embraces denim style amid controversial American Eagle campaign

Sydney Sweeney is really into blue jeans right now.

The 27-year-old actor shared several Instagram photos of herself hanging out with friends and family on Friday, August 15. She was wearing jeans and a white t-shirt. The news comes three weeks after her controversial ad for American Eagle jeans came out.

Her friends who went out with her all wore blue or denim clothes for the night of dancing, so it looked like denim was the color of the night.

In one picture, she looked like she was singing karaoke with a friend, and in another, she was having drinks with a group of friends. Sweeney labeled the picture as “Duval Diaries.”

Sweeney thought it was “perfect” when American Eagle asked her to be the face of their new denim ad, which is called “Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans.”

“I like to wear sweats.” But I wore American Eagle jeans on a plane yesterday, and I thought, “Oh, this is great.” “They’re so comfortable,” she said, adding that this made her job “perfect.”

“When they suggested a denim campaign, I was thrilled,” she said. “I thought, ‘This is it.'” This is Syd. I’ll be able to make this happen. “You have no idea.”

American Eagle’s social media pages have campaign videos that show Sweeney working on a car while wearing different types of jeans. She also tests for a new part in the campaign and talks to the camera directly about the new collection.

Some people didn’t like how the word “jeans” was used as a play on “genes,” saying it was racist and suggested that some people are genetically better than others. Others didn’t like how the campaign catered to men’s looks and was based on Brooke Shields’ controversial 1980 denim ad.

Despite the criticism, American Eagle released a statement on Instagram on Friday, August 1, announcing an increase in its promotional efforts.

“‘Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans’ has always been about the jeans,” the brand said in a picture. “Her pants. Her story. We’ll keep celebrating how each person wears their AE jeans in their own unique way, with confidence. “Great jeans make everyone look good.”
