Sydney Sweeney Joins American Eagle for New Denim Campaign
Actress Sydney Sweeney, best known for her role in Euphoria, is teaming up with American Eagle as the star of its Fall 2025 denim campaign. The playful tagline, “Sydney Sweeney has great jeans,” sets the tone for a collection that focuses on timeless denim essentials with modern inspiration.
In the campaign, Sweeney sports 1970s-inspired flare jeans paired with a classic denim jacket. At the heart of the launch is The Sydney Jean, designed with a butterfly motif stitched onto the back pocket to symbolize domestic violence awareness, an issue Sweeney is personally passionate about. Beyond raising awareness, the jeans also give back: 100% of the purchase price goes directly to Crisis Text Line, a nonprofit that provides free, 24/7, confidential mental health support by texting 741741.
