For Sydney Sweeney, Sadie Sink and Camila Mendes, Hollywood stylist Molly Dickson knows how the power of fashion can elevate their star status. Her clients have landed on many a best-dressed list — and now her new denim collaboration with Madewell makes it easy (and affordable) to attain A-list style.

Available at Madewell.com and in select stores, the 12-piece capsule ($82-$178) takes inspiration from her aforementioned clients — with Mendes even starring in the collection’s campaign. Available in sizes XXS to XXL, the limited-edition range comprises denim wardrobe staples in of-the-moment oversized and low-slung designs (including baggy, straight, cargo and classic wide-leg jeans) in an array of vintage-style washes alongside a sportswear-inspired bralette, a shacket, a cropped shirt, oversized overalls, a mini skirt and more.

Dickson took ’70s- and ’90s silhouettes and refreshed them with edgy touches: think cargo pants finished with a front buckle, baggy jeans with cutout pockets or a two-tone double waistband, and frayed-edge shorts and pants with a crossover waist. The range also features a trio of tank tops designed “to be thick enough for you to feel comfortable wearing it without a bra,” says Dickson in a release.

The cargo pants were pulled straight from Sink’s off-duty style: “We found a cargo pant that had a buckle on front like that and we could not stop talking about it,” Dickson explains. The Stranger Things actress was also the inspiration behind the overalls, which feature a ’70s-style silhouette. “I saw this one photo … and I really liked the idea of snatching in the waist with the belt to make it a little bit more feminine.”

Of the crossover baggy straight-leg jeans, Dickson says client Kelsea Ballerini’s “butt looked so good” after trying the pair on for the first time. “They hit you in the perfect spot where it accentuates your waist.”

The denim with cutouts in place of pockets required “a few trial and errors on the sample” before they nailed the design, reveals Dickson. “It’s so cool that they’re baggy and loose at the bottom, but they’re really sexy on top.”

Dickson stars in the campaign alongside Mendes, who she styled in casual-cool looks that include the oversized crop shirt with the low-rise baggy wide-leg jeans; and the double-waist denim, the gray cropped tank and the dark-wash shacket. The stylist herself wears a striped rugby long-sleeved shirt with the cargo pants, while the overalls are paired with a baggy sweater underneath and cinched with a black leather buckle.
