“I have been devoted to the western lifestyle all my life, and
there’s nothing that feels more like home than a pair of Wrangler
jeans,” said Wilson. “Teaming up with this brand feels like the
perfect fit and there are so many new, exciting and trendy styles
for women in the upcoming collection, including my favorite bell
bottom flare pieces.”
A longtime denim fan, Wilson recently released her
highly-anticipated Bell Bottom Country album and headlined the sold
out Country with a Flare Tour earlier this year. She will be
performing at many festivals throughout 2023, including CMA Fest,
Stagecoach, Watershed and Lollapalooza. Wilson also appeared in
season five of the hit series Yellowstone, which Wrangler has
collaborated with numerous times through costuming and the official
Wrangler x Yellowstone Collection.
“Over the last several years, Lainey Wilson has become a genuine
and inspirational voice to fans of the brand, sharing her honest
journey from a PRCA flag girl to an award-winning musician,” said
Holly Wheeler, vice president global marketing - Wrangler. “As the
most recognized female artist in recent country music history and a
leading voice in the western movement, we’re thrilled to have her
represent Wrangler alongside other industry greats like George
Strait, Jon Pardi and Cody Johnson.”
As the western movement continues to ride into mainstream
fashion, Wrangler is at the forefront of denim trends with new
washes and prints on bootcut and flare denim that have been crucial
to the brand’s core for decades. The upcoming Wrangler fall/winter
collection will be available nationwide and on Wrangler.com
beginning in July. Key styles that Wilson can be spotted in include
a denim vest, printed bootcuts, trumpet flare and velvet flare
bottoms, a denim sherpa jacket and western button-down tops.
The brand will continue to team up with Wilson in 2024 with
Wilson as the face of Wrangler women’s next spring and a Wrangler x
Lainey Wilson Capsule Collection expected in the fall of 2024. To

About Lainey Wilson
CMA 2022 Female Vocalist of the Year, CMA 2022 New Artist of the
Year, and ACM’s 2022 New Female Artist of the Year, Lainey Wilson
has earned the enthusiasm of the industry. Having been named to
nearly every “Artist to Watch” list, being crowned the most
nominated female artist at the 2023 ACM awards, as well as the top
nominated artist at the 2023 CMT Music Awards, the Louisiana native
is one of Nashville’s hottest and most buzzed-about new artists.
Landing her first No. 1 with her PLATINUM Certified ACM Song of the
Year, “Things A Man Oughta Know,” nearly 10 years to the day after
leaving her small farming community in a camper trailer to chase
her dreams, she has won over legions of fans with her signature
Bell Bottom Country sound and aesthetic, which blends traditional
Country with a modern yet retro flare. A prolific and sought-after
songwriter (having co-writer credits on songs by artists including
Luke Combs, Flatland Calvary, and more), Lainey is a fresh, fierce
voice in Nashville, delivering CMA-nominated album of the year with
her label debut, Sayin’ What I’m Thinkin’. With a rockstar stage
presence, her artistry has taken her across the globe, performing
for sold-out crowds throughout the US, UK, and Germany with notable
names like Jon Pardi, Luke Combs, Morgan Wallen, HARDY, Jason
Aldean, Ashley McBryde, and more. After topping the country radio
charts for a second time with the two-week No. 1 hit, “Never Say
Never” with Cole Swindell, she recently achieved her third and
fourth No. 1 song with “Heart Like a Truck” and HARDY collaboration
“wait in the truck”. Her critically acclaimed album, “Bell Bottom
Country,” reached No. 9 on Billboard’s Country Albums Chart,
quickly rose to No. 1 on iTunes charts and has amassed over 350
million streams to date. Most recently, she made her acting debut
in Season 5 of the smash hit series “Yellowstone” as a musician
character named Abby, where she premiered her original “Smell Like
Smoke” as well as showcased other hits off her recent album
including “Watermelon Moonshine” and “Hold My Halo”. Adding to her
growing list of endeavors, Wilson was named “Tractor Supply Brand
Ambassador,” was honored at Billboard’s Women in Music Awards with
