How to get Erin Wasson’s Look, from Ripped Denim to Grunge Chic

Supermodel, designer, stylist, and brand spokesperson – the only thing 27-year-old Texan Erin Wasson has yet to do is release a terrible single or make a cameo in a cinematic flop. But with her innate sense of sang froid that comes across in her cool sense of street style, it’s unlikely she’ll make any tacky moves yet. Copied by many, achieved by few, her style blends grunge with modern glamour for a look that harks back to the 90s.

Wasson's look is all about texture: worn-in denim, heavy furs, tough leather and lacy lingerie coupled with fierce jewellery and studs make for a look that screams 'Je ne sais quoi'. The too-cool-to-care attitude saves the look from potential skankiness: there's a fine line between grunge and gross, and let's face it, not all of us have bodies of a Victoria's Secret angel. Essentially, the only way to dress like her is to act like her; it's about the person, not the clothes. (But it does help if you have your own line and a few million dollars to spare.)
