These are the iconic mummy jeans from Helmut Lang’s Spring/Summer 2004 collection done in their classic denim silhouette. Elastic straps feature along the legs and waist, giving this pair a striking visual impression and a unique tactile sensation when worn—a manifestation of Helmut’s oft-utilized bondage theme. Each of these jeans seem to feature a different application of the elastic straps, making them not only violently beautiful but also distinctively unique to the owner. This feature is also elaborated on by the ability to customize the shape and fit of the denim by adjusting the straps. A truly wonderful garment and one of Lang's shining moments.
