Levi’s launches ‘Easy in Levi’s’ with Alia Bhatt & Diljit Dosanjh
Baggy is no longer just a trend; it’s a shift in how people want to wear their denim. The Levi’s brand embraces this with a modern take on loose fits that feel effortless yet intentional. From relaxed jeans to oversized layers, these silhouettes make a statement without trying too hard. This season, baggy is about redefining comfort, confidence and personal style on one’s own terms.
Levi’s unveils ‘Easy in Levi’s’, fronted by Alia Bhatt and Diljit Dosanjh, celebrating a cultural shift towards loose, effortless denim.
The campaign highlights new silhouettes like Baggy Dad Barrel, XL Straight, 578 Baggy, and Extra Baggy, combining ease, movement, and confidence, redefining personal style with modern, oversized fits that reflect freedom, creativity, and self-expression.
Alia Bhatt brings her signature authenticity and global style sensibility to her first campaign for the Levi’s brand. Leading the women’s denim narrative, she wears the Baggy Dad Barrel, a fresh take on a cult favorite with its sculpted ease, curved outseam, and slouchy attitude. Also featured is the XL Straight, a clean, 90s-inspired silhouette with a strong, minimal presence that feels both nostalgic and current. These two fits join the brand’s much loved ’94 Baggy and High Loose that lean into the loose and relaxed trend with a flattering silhouette.
Diljit Dosanjh returns with his unmistakable flair, continuing to champion freedom of movement and individuality through denim. He takes on the 578 Baggy, a laid-back fit with relaxed proportions and stacked detail as well as the Extra Baggy, an exaggerated silhouette that blends expression and ease in equal measure. Rooted in the streetwear aesthetic and embraced by a new generation, the Extra Baggy redefines comfort and confidence, offering room to move while making a bold style statement. With its oversized proportions and effortless drape, it embodies the cultural shift towards fluidity, creativity, and personal freedom in fashion today.
With Alia Bhatt and Diljit Dosanjh at the helm, Easy in Levi’s captures a cultural shift that embraces silhouettes designed for individuality and ease. It’s about comfort that doesn’t compromise on personal style. The rise of baggy signals a move toward self-expression that prioritizes ease over restriction, confidence over conformity. Today’s denim wearers aren’t looking to fit in, they’re dressing to stand out, to move freely, and to feel like their most authentic selves. Baggy fits embody that energy: relaxed, self-assured, and unapologetically bold. It continues to be a silhouette that doesn’t just follow trends but leads a cultural reset in how one wears their denim.

ICE cotton slips as weak US stocks, grains pressure market
ICE December cotton futures settled at 64.54 cents per pound, down 0.69 cents.
ICE cotton futures declined amid weakness in US stocks and grains, with traders awaiting the USDA’s supply and demand report due on November 14, 2025.
Technology and AI-related stock losses and uncertainty around President Trump’s tariff policies further dampened sentiment.
Brazil’s October cotton exports rose 5 per cent year-on-year, while ICE deliverable inventories remained steady at 13,749 bales.
Market analysts noted that the fall in the stock market was the primary driver behind the decline. Weakness in grain prices added further pressure on cotton values. US stocks closed lower on Thursday, extending losses from earlier in the week. Technology and AI-related stocks led the declines due to concerns about overvaluation and economic uncertainty.
The US Supreme Court heard arguments challenging President Trump’s broad tariff policies, heightening global trade concerns. US Trade Representative Greer stated that some plaintiffs could receive refunds if the court rules against the tariffs, subject to Treasury’s scheduling.
CBOT soybean futures fell sharply as optimism over renewed demand weakened following signs of easing trade tensions.
Traders are now focused on the USDA’s delayed monthly supply and demand report, scheduled for release on November 14, 2025. Despite the ongoing US government shutdown, the USDA confirmed it is collecting survey data for upcoming crop yield reports.
Brazil’s cotton exports totalled 293,928.51 tons in October, up 5 per cent year-on-year, with daily shipments averaging 13,360.39 tons, also up 5 per cent.
ICE data showed deliverable No. 2 cotton futures inventory unchanged at 13,749 bales as of November 05, 2025.
This morning (Indian Standard Time), ICE cotton for December 2025 traded at 64.66 cents per pound (up 0.12 cent), cash cotton at 62.04 cents (down 0.69 cent), the March 2026 contract at 65.90 cents (up 0.13 cent), the May 2026 contract at 67.11 cents (up 0.13 cent), the July 2026 contract at 68.07 cents (unchanged), and the October 2026 contract at 68.08 cents (down 0.51 cent). A few contracts remained at their previous closing levels, with no trading recorded so far today.
