Sydney Sweeney Wears a Canadian Tuxedo—and Nothing Else—for New Campaign
Sydney Sweeney's latest brand campaign sees her wearing denim—and nothing but denim.
The actress is the star of the new fall 2025 campaign for American Eagle Outfitters, a partnership officially announced on July 23. The campaign, 'Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans,' with Sweeney chosen because 'she brings the allure,' the company said in a release Wednesday.
'There is something so effortless about American Eagle—it's the perfect balance of being put-together but still feeling like yourself,' Sweeney said in the same release. 'Their commitment to creating pieces that make you feel confident and comfortable in your own skin is something that resonates with me.'
'It's rare to find a brand that grows with you, the way American Eagle has for generations,' she continued. 'They have literally been there with me through every version of myself.'
Collection highlights include a limited-edition denim jacket that was reimagined from a 'real-time tailoring moment' with Molly Dickson, Sweeney's stylist. The campaign will also feature 'The Sydney Jean,' a limited-run offering produced in collaboration with Sweeney—and featuring a butterfly motif on the back pocket of the jean representing domestic violence awareness, 'which Sydney is passionate about,' the company said.
The late 1990s and early 2000s favorite brand is attempting to become the favorite of Gen Z, too—and cool girl Sweeney is an obvious choice to partner with. When it comes to 'The Sydney Jean,' Sweeney told InStyle, 'I definitely wanted a jean that felt comfortable, loose, and free—something that you can kind of do anything in and dress up or down.'
Of supporting domestic violence awareness, Sweeney—who plays boxer domestic violence survivor Christy Martin in the forthcoming film Christy, due out in September—told InStyle, 'I wanted to do something in support of a cause that was really important to me by bringing awareness to domestic violence.' In honor of Martin, 100 percent of the proceeds from 'The Sydney Jean' will be donated to Crisis Text Line, a nonprofit that provides mental health support.
Of her partnership with American Eagle, 'I've been a huge fan of [American Eagle] jeans, and so when they came to me, I was like, 'This is so me,'' Sweeney told InStyle, adding that 'I am definitely a jeans and T-shirt girlie. Everyone knows that about me, all of my friends, and it's when I feel the most confident and myself.'
'They're the comfiest jeans I've ever worn,' Sweeney told People. 'I don't know why anyone wears anything else.'
The Euphoria star remains in-demand as a brand ambassador—in addition to her acting career, Sweeney has also collaborated with Miu Miu, Jimmy Choo, Armani Beauty, Leneige, and more over the past year (and that's just fashion and beauty brands). When it comes to American Eagle's fall campaign, it is reportedly their 'largest fall campaign to date' and 'marks the first time AE has partnered with an A-list celebrity at this scale,' according to Glossy.

Tomi Lahren On The Popularity Of Sydney Sweeney's American Eagle Ad: 'Americans Like Buying Things From Attractive People'
Host of Outkick's 'Tomi Lahren Is Fearless' Tomi Lahren joins Fox Across America With Jimmy Failla to share her thoughts on the online left-wing backlash that has ensued following Sydney Sweeney's new ad campaign with American Eagle. 'Listen, woke is dead, and they're having a really hard time coming to grips with that. I think it's a few-stage, you know, program that they have to go through, because they're used to seeing fat green-haired with septum piercings, and they/them's. That's what they're used to. They're used Dylan Mulvaney in a prom dress and pearls selling us Bud Light. And that was what was working for them 2020 to probably 2023. So they're still having a hard time coming off of that high. They'll adjust. It'll just take probably a couple of years.' Lahren Says Democrats Have Been Absolutely Captured By The Activist Class Tomi also gives her take on Jimmy's new Fox News op-ed about how Bud Light can save its brand.

Pentagon joins ‘great jeans' discourse with Hegseth photo
The Pentagon has waded into the discourse around an American Eagle ad campaign featuring actress Sydney Sweeney that has recently sparked controversy. '@secdef has great jeans,' the Pentagon said in a Monday post on the social platform X, featuring a photo of Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth wearing jeans. The ad campaign featuring Sweeney has resulted in backlash over what some have deemed racist undertones. A majority of the criticism has surrounded the campaign's title: 'Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans,' riffing on 'good genes.' 'Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality, and even eye color,' Sweeney said in one video from the campaign while showing off the brand's jeans. 'My jeans are blue.' On Monday, President Trump weighed in on the Sweeney ad campaign, saying that being 'woke is for losers.' 'Sydney Sweeney, a registered Republican, has the 'HOTTEST' ad out there. It's for American Eagle, and the jeans are 'flying off the shelves.' Go get 'em Sydney!' Trump said on his Truth Social platform. A day before, Trump said, 'If Sydney Sweeney is a registered Republican, I think her ad is fantastic.'

Megyn Kelly's Defense of Sydney Sweeney Proves Beyoncé Lives Rent-Free in Her Head
In an effort to praise Sydney Sweeney and her American Eagle ad, Megyn Kelly took a jab at Beyoncé and her Levi's ad, saying nothing about the singer is 'natural.' 'This is the opposite of the Sydney Sweeney ad,' the Republican media personality wrote on social media Tuesday morning. 'Quite clearly there is nothing natural about Beyonce. Everything - from her image to her fame to her success to her look below - is bought and paid for. Screams artificial, fake, enhanced, trying too hard.' In the image Kelly shared, the singer is dressed head to toe in sparkly denim and sports curly blond hair. After Sweeney's American Eagle ad drew controversy for what some people said promoted white supremacy, Republican leaders and personalities jumped to her defense, including President Donald Trump, who, after learning Sweeney is a registered Republican, said he loved her ad. Sweeney hasn't responded to criticism of the ad, but on Friday, American Eagle wrote on Instagram that the ad 'always was about the jeans.' ''Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans' is and always was about the jeans. Her jeans. Her story,' the statement read. 'We'll continue to celebrate how everyone wears their AE jeans with confidence, their way. Great jeans look good on everyone.' It's no surprise that Kelly went after Beyoncé, who has long supported Democratic politicians and in October appeared at former Vice President Kamala Harris's campaign rally in Houston — Beyoncé hometown. 'I'm here as a mother, a mother who cares deeply about the world my children and all of our children live in, a world where we have the freedom to control our bodies, a world where we're not divided,' Beyoncé said at the event.
