Probably not. Searchlight Pictures’ A COMPLETE UNKNOWN, set in New York’s influential folk music scene in the early ’60s, is about a mysterious 19-year-old Minnesotan. This is the story of a young boy who arrives in the West Village with a guitar and a revolutionary talent, destined to change the course of American musical history. Timothee Chalamet plays and sings Bob Dylan in this film directed by James Mangold. The Levi’s(R) Vintage Clothing team, which collaborated on costume design, will celebrate the film’s release with a new collection that pays homage to Dylan and his classic looks. During the production of The Nameless, the Levi’s(R) team worked with costume designer Arianne Phillips to recreate the authentic denim fit worn by a young Bob Dylan. I tried. Using Levi’s(R)’s extensive archive collection and materials, the team unraveled Levi’s(R) at the time and created a denim style that faithfully reproduced its history. Paul O’, Design Director of Levi’s(R) Vintage Clothing For Paul O’Neill, releasing a collection about Bob Dylan several years ago became a key source of information for accurately capturing Dylan’s look. To create his 2019 Levi’s(R) Vintage Clothing collection Folk City, Paul O’Neill read the memoirs of Bob Dylan’s ex-girlfriend Suze Rotolo. She, 1960 In the early 1990s, Dylan added panels to his jeans so they could be worn over boots, and Levi’s® was already doing something fascinating like this years before they offered bootcut jeans. is surprising. Several photographs of Dylan clearly appear in jeans, including the cover of Dylan’s fourth LP, Another Side of Bob Dylan. This important discovery is also featured in the movie. The new Levi’s(R) Vintage Clothing x A Complete Unknown collection consists of Levi’s(R) Vintage Clothing 1955 501(R) jeans with bootcut inserts, Levi’s(R) Vintage Clothing “D” belt, and suede jacket . The team at Levi’s(R) Vintage Clothing worked closely with Arianne Phillips to identify these key styles featured in the film and bring them to life for this collection. The campaign material for this special collaboration features original lyrics by Bob Dylan and stills from the film, in collaboration with Universal Music Group and Searchlight Pictures. Levi’s(R)Vintage Clothing 1955 pays homage to the custom jeans worn by Dylan. The 501(R) has been customized into a boot cut, just like the jeans he actually wore. Also included is the leather “D” buckle belt that Dylan always wore. Just like the movie, this new collection highlights Dylan’s romantic side. The jeans and belt are housed in a beautiful box featuring Dylan’s lyrics, the sheet music for “Girl from the North Country,” and the legendary music video “Subterranean Homesick.” A cue card for “New Friend” from “Subterranean Homesick Blues” and an early Dylan lyric, “I’ll let you be in my,” hidden in the watch pocket of my jeans. It is accompanied by special tributes, including a typed note that says, “dreams, if I can be in yours.” To complete this look for Dylan, the Levi’s(R) Vintage Clothing team reimagined the classic suede trucker jacket that Dylan wore in the early 1960s. This jacket includes the sheet music for “A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall,” cue cards for “Dig Yourself,” and Timothée Chalamet’s jacket, jeans, and belt in the movie. It comes in a special box with a picture of it being worn. Like the 501(R), the inside pocket of the jacket has a costume note with the words “A Complete Unknown” written on it, as well as the product’s costume changes and appearance scenes. “I was honored to work with Arianne and the team on this project to faithfully recreate Bob Dylan’s early Levi’s® style. By adding paneling and unique anecdotes to the jeans, the new collection is sure to capture the film’s romantic themes while staying true to the unparalleled genius’s iconic Levi’s® look. I did it.”Paul O’Neill, Design Director, Levi’s(R) Vintage Clothing “While researching costumes for this film, I was constantly reminded that Bob Dylan consistently wore Levi’s(R) throughout his career, both on stage and in private. Working with Paul O’Neill of Levi Strauss & Co., we sourced original Levi’s® denim and created bootcut 501® jeans, a super slim pair that Dylan wore in 1965. It was a reproduction of Levi’s(R) jeans.In addition, Dylan wore 61. From the 501(R) he wore when he started out in New York’s West Village folk scene in 2013, to the Super Slim Jeans that Dylan wore when he started his famous electronic music career in 1965.
