The faded wide-leg denim trousers are definitely the pièce de résistance of this collection. Pros: They’re super flowy and lightweight, with a dramatic silhouette that’s still surprisingly versatile. Con: They don’t come in petite sizing! While I did some clever posing to show off the style, they were too long for my under-5’3” frame. The lack of petite and tall lengths is my biggest critique of GapStudio, but I’m hopeful sizing will expand as the line grows. The Mid Rise Baggy Jeans did fit better lengthwise, though (note: while this style is nearly sold out online, you can still find them in stores).
I did also really love the sheer cropped button-down, which, for some reason, made me feel like Lizzie McGuire. With the cuffs rolled up, it brings a cool, coastal vibe to an office staple. I paired the similar drapey denim button-down with matching high-rise denim shorts, which have a paperbag-type waistband and super-stretchy fit. I preferred these over the collection’s Low Rise Stride denim shorts, which are a bit more rigid and revealing.
