Larsen Thompson Makes Crystal-Studded Denim Look Couture in Milan

There’s denim… and then there’s this denim.

At the Antonio Marras show during Milan Fashion Week on February 25, 2026, Larsen Thompson stepped out in a look that made you stop mid-scroll. From afar, it reads classic—dark wash, structured silhouette. But up close? It’s a full fashion moment.

She wore an embellished dark denim jacket, tailored neatly through the waist with a subtle peplum shape that adds just enough drama. The real magic is in the detailing: intricate crystal embellishments swirl across the sleeves and bodice in almost floral patterns. They catch the light softly—not disco-ball loud, but intentional and refined.

The matching wide-leg jeans carried the same crystal motifs down the legs, creating a cohesive, elongated silhouette. High-waisted and slightly pooling at the hem, they delivered that effortless Milan volume. Metallic open-toe heels peeked out underneath, adding a flash of silver without competing with the denim.

And then there’s the bag—a structured teal top-handle piece that feels modern and deliberate. Against the dark denim, that pop of color is smart styling. It breaks up the look and keeps it from feeling overly coordinated.

Hair fell in long, polished waves, and her makeup stayed fresh and understated. No heavy layering. No unnecessary extras.

Honestly? Embellished denim can veer into early-2000s chaos fast. But this works because of the cut. The cinched waist, the clean lines, the confident restraint. It feels grown-up. Considered.

Front row fashion doesn’t always need sequins or couture gowns. Sometimes it just needs great tailoring—and a little sparkle.

And this? This is how you do denim in Milan.
