Highlights include <a href=\"https:\/\/www.madewell.com\/p\/womens\/clothing\/jeans\/low-slung-baggy-patchwork-jeans\/OA856\/?ccode=DN0174\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"T3D\">The Low-Slung Baggy Jean<\/a> \u2014 a favorite of stomach-issue-inclined girlies like David \u2014  and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.madewell.com\/p\/womens\/clothing\/jeans\/flare-+-bootcut-jeans\/relaxed-bootcut-jeans\/OB293\/?ccode=DN0138\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"T3D\">The Relaxed Bootcut Jean<\/a>, the latter of which David would wear for a night out with her friends: \u201cIt\u2019s just a perfect pair of pants that happens to be jeans.\u201d The rest of the collection includes the basics you\u2019ll fall back on when you\u2019re in an outfit-equation rut, like the layering pointelle camis, striped sweaters, and a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nylon.com\/fashion\/polo-shirt-trend-comeback-2024\" class=\"T3D\">preppy wool polo<\/a> in a cheeky lemon yellow that is dying to be worn with mid-wash blue jeans.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sWr iGR\">\n<div class=\"QYV\">\n<div class=\"uES fEt\">\n<div class=\"uT7\">\n<div class=\"FDO\">\n<div class=\"vmZ XJ- jWP\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/imgix.bustle.com\/uploads\/image\/2026\/9\/8\/f4bbbb78\/106274_lra_madewellxcazzie_005_11_web.jpg?w=374&amp;dpr=2\" alt class=\"EdX\"><\/div><figcaption class=\"MO9\"><cite>Courtesy of Madewell<\/cite><\/figcaption><\/div>\n<div class=\"FDO\">\n<div class=\"vmZ XJ- jWP\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/imgix.bustle.com\/uploads\/image\/2026\/9\/8\/e43f97fe\/106274_lra_madewellxcazzie_015_10_web.jpg?w=374&amp;dpr=2\" alt class=\"EdX\"><\/div><figcaption class=\"MO9\"><cite>Courtesy of Madewell<\/cite><\/figcaption><\/div>\n<div class=\"FDO\">\n<div class=\"vmZ XJ- jWP\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/imgix.bustle.com\/uploads\/image\/2026\/9\/8\/7608156b\/106274_lra_madewellxcazzie_019_03_web.jpg?w=374&amp;dpr=2\" alt class=\"EdX\"><\/div><figcaption class=\"MO9\"><cite>Courtesy of Madewell<\/cite><\/figcaption><\/div>\n<div class=\"FDO\">\n<div class=\"vmZ XJ- jWP\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/imgix.bustle.com\/uploads\/image\/2026\/9\/8\/3aa8a453\/106274_lra_madewellxcazzie_011_11_web.jpg?w=374&amp;dpr=2\" alt class=\"EdX\"><\/div><figcaption class=\"MO9\"><cite>Courtesy of Madewell<\/cite><\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"yOD GLK\">\n<div class=\"ki0 kpP\">\n<div class=\"MNV\"><\/div>\n<p><label for=\"lightboxCheckbox-486265365\" class=\"QNb y8V St5\"><button aria-label=\"open lightbox\" class=\"kMc\"><\/button><\/label><\/div>\n<div class=\"C1C\">\n<div class=\"ZXG\">\n<div class=\"F6c\"><button class=\"ikQ VkL\"><\/button>1 \/ 4<button class=\"ikQ Olc\"><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"LOc\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"igl f5y\"><button class=\"ikQ Xfx\"><span class=\"Od1\">INFO<\/span><\/button><\/p>\n<div class=\"itG\">1 \/ 4<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Ever a woman of many words, David plays the role of \u201cDenim Expert\u201d in the campaign, fielding calls and dishing out advice. When someone asks how they\u2019ll know when they\u2019ve found \u201cthe one,\u201d she gamely replies, \u201cYou\u2019ll just know. They\u2019ll lift you up, you\u2019ll reach for them every day and miss them when they\u2019re not around.\u201d It\u2019s an editorial that not only serves to show how versatile the latest denim is, but how David\u2019s signature dry humor and wit can serve as both relationship and jean-picking advice. \u201cHow about trying one with deep pockets, if you know what I mean?\u201d Relatable.<\/p>\n<p>After a summer spent on Martha\u2019s Vineyard, David dialed in from Los Angeles to talk about her newfound love of wearing jeans inside, her <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nylon.com\/entertainment\/song-of-the-summer-2026-spotify-tiktok\" class=\"T3D\">song of the summer,<\/a> and why dating someone with bad style is a plus.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sWr iGR CEt\">\n<figure class=\"Qf5 E1M LRM\">\n<div style=\"padding-top:177.3399%\" class=\"Rfb F8Y sMW\"><video controls playsinline class=\"kOK U-k\"><\/video><\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"Yte pt7 okb\"><figcaption class=\"rv9 TrI\"><cite class=\"hW6\">Courtesy of Madewell<\/cite><\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>This campaign fits your personal style super well. Tell me about shooting the campaign and what pair of denim went home with you from set.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s interesting because usually you don\u2019t get 30 pairs of jeans to choose from. They were all great. I\u2019m really not just saying this, I\u2019ve had one pair of jeans my whole life and I\u2019ve never chosen a different pair of jeans to wear. It\u2019s very rare to have an assortment of jeans to choose from and like all of them equally. I didn\u2019t care which ones I was wearing because they all fit well and were so comfortable. The shoot was super collaborative, and that was great. You can feel like a prop doing stuff like this, and it was a great experience because I was able to contribute creatively and not just speak to the product, if that makes sense.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Putting on a good pair of jeans and making people laugh is a good way to do that. Is there anything else besides the jeans that caught your eye and will make its way into your wardrobe this fall?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The jeans are so good that it doesn\u2019t really matter what top you\u2019re wearing, which is rare. Usually you have to put in equal effort. I love all the striped stuff. Embarrassingly enough, I\u2019m wearing this shirt and I was like, \u201cDo I change before?\u201d because it\u2019s so on the nose for me to be wearing a Madewell shirt. It\u2019s going to seem like I did it on purpose. The striped stuff is really cute, and the sweaters. There are a lot of fun layering options.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I love that. It\u2019s giving brand ambassador.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m going to try and sell the sh*t out of them. I\u2019ve never gotten home and not immediately put sweatpants on, because I hate the feeling of being in regular clothes and I hate the feeling of being in jeans, honestly. I put on these jeans, and it feels the same as wearing sweatpants. You can actually lounge in them. For me to be able to do that has been a game changer, to feel more like a human when you\u2019re in the house. It makes a huge difference to not be in pajamas all day.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sWr iGR CEt\">\n<figure class=\"Qf5 E1M\">\n<div style=\"padding-top:125%\" class=\"vmZ F8Y ap2\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/imgix.bustle.com\/uploads\/image\/2026\/9\/8\/8289dcf1\/fam26m_sep_campaign_01_058_web.jpg?w=414&amp;h=518&amp;fit=crop&amp;crop=faces&amp;dpr=2\" alt class=\"EdX\"><\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"Yte pt7 okb\"><figcaption class=\"rv9 TrI\"><cite class=\"hW6\">Courtesy of Madewell<\/cite><\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>Is dating someone with a bad sense of style a deal breaker for you?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>No, and I actually get annoyed when my friends who are single will go on a date and be like, \u201cI can\u2019t go on another date. Their style was so bad.\u201d That is something you can change. The only reason any straight man has bad style is because they don\u2019t have a girlfriend that\u2019s helping them behind the scenes. For me, not a deal breaker, but it\u2019s definitely a plus if they do have it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>It\u2019s a plus. I look at it as a fun project.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Totally. That\u2019s part of the deal of dating: You\u2019re going to have to dress them like a baby. It\u2019s your fault if you have not intervened and your boyfriend still looks bad.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If you were to give a pair of jeans to anyone in your life, who would you give them to and what pair are they getting?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I would give them to my sister because anytime I give her something, it goes a long way for me. She\u2019ll be like, \u201cWow, that\u2019s so nice. I wasn\u2019t expecting you to do something nice for me.\u201d I would do something low-waisted because she has stomach problems. Maybe a white jean for summer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I have a pair of the Madewell white jeans. They\u2019re good.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re really good. They\u2019re not embarrassing. It\u2019s an under-the-radar white. I feel like sometimes when I wear white pants, it\u2019s too much attention.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What\u2019s on your reading list for fall?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m excited to read <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nylon.com\/entertainment\/pen15-maya-erskine-anna-konkle-season-two\" class=\"T3D\">Anna Konkle<\/a>\u2019s book,<em> The Sane One<\/em>. I only want to finish that. I think she\u2019s brilliant and hilarious.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is your song of the summer?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>OK, so I jokingly posted on my Substack that <em>The Odyssey<\/em> rap is the song of the summer. Did you hear the <em>Jimmy Fallon<\/em> thing? It got so stuck in my head to the point where I had the urge to memorize it like I was 14 again, when you used to memorize songs as an activity. That is what I want to do with <em>The Odyssey <\/em>rap.<\/p>\n<div style=\"max-width:854px\" class=\"sWr iGR vrU\">\n<div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"bwd\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>In the campaign, you were taking calls as the Denim Expert, so I\u2019m going to give you some scenarios and I would love to know what jeans you would wear. Number one: getting a bagel when you\u2019re hungover on a Saturday morning.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>First of all, low-waisted, because if you\u2019re eating a bagel, you might get a little bloated. You don\u2019t want high-waisted, and you don\u2019t want to be unbuttoning the pants. If you\u2019re a girl with stomach issues like me, usually I choose low-waisted and baggy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Next scenario: You\u2019re going somewhere and you know your ex is going to be there.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>OK. You need something that\u2019s going to accentuate the butt. Put on the pair that makes your butt look the best \u2014 but you don\u2019t want to look like you\u2019re trying too hard, so I would say something that\u2019s not a baggy jean, but a straight leg where the ass looks really good. Maybe a dark wash.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Next scenario: family brunch on a Sunday.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m going to go again for the low-waist baggy, because I don\u2019t give my family anything. I actually dress down for them on purpose. They don\u2019t deserve me at my best.<\/p>\n<p><strong>My last scenario: Friday-night drinks in New York with the girls.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s this pair of jeans called the classic vintage something, but they\u2019re just the perfect pair of jeans that you could wear with anything. I would choose that. It doesn\u2019t make your outfit look too much like you\u2019re wearing denim, if that makes sense. It\u2019s just a perfect pair of pants that happens to be jeans.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Madewell Fall 2026 collection is now available in Madewell stores and online at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.madewell.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"T3D\">madewell.com<\/a>.
