            Light blue denim jeans designed to resemble multiple strips of denim waistbands stitched together in rows, each section featuring functional QC-branded buttons and belt loops spaced across the garment. This construction creates the illusion of stacked jean waistbands and eliminates the outer leg seam. The jeans are cut in a low-rise style, with all pockets secured by McQueen-branded rivets in each corner. The back pockets are embroidered with the QC logo.
