Creative inspiration can sometimes come from unlikely sources and places, like on a boat ride in Ibiza. That’s where FRAME co-founder Erik Torstensson and British Vogue fashion director Julia Sarr-Jamois came up with the idea to create a limited-edition collection that blends FRAME’s effortlessly chic and universally-appealing closet staples with Sarr-Jamois’ distinctive style.
Sarr-Jamois is the latest talent to collaborate with FRAME, which has previously partnered with tastemakers such as celebrity stylist Illona Hammer and supermodel Claudia Schiffer. Sarr-Jamois is an influential street-style fashion muse who rules the best-dressed lists, champions emerging talent, and advocates for diversity while collaborating with brands like Nike and Lucy Folk.
Together, Sarr-Jamois and FRAME have designed a 19-piece edit of modern classics that add an extra oomph to your everyday, effortless style. The collection includes a range of chic tie-dye separates, such as a linen blouse, comfortable lounge pants, and an oversized woolen cashmere cardigan with patchwork stitching and an “JSJ” logo. Plus, there are a number of handcrafted crochet pieces such as a bucket hat, string bikini, mini halter dress, and even colorful earrings, all of which hit on one of the most popular trends of the season. Camouflage cargo pants also make their way into the lineup to highlight Sarr-Jamois’ knack for incorporating eye-catching prints and on-trend silhouettes into her cool ensembles. To round out the collection, the stylist and consultant took inspiration from her own extensive denim wardrobe of oversized, distressed, and vintage washes to help create a show-stopping pair of chocolate brown, low-slung, straight-leg jeans embellished with over 50,000 shimmering Swarovski crystals.
By combining Sarr-Jamois’ sartorial point of view, nonconformist spirit, and ’70s-era aesthetic with FRAME’s elevated wardrobe staples, the result is a collection that offers something for everyone. The fashion industry veteran’s eye for textural mixing and color play was key to creating pieces that not only pair perfectly together but also work well with timeless wardrobe essentials in your closet.
“It has long been a dream of mine to create my own collection. To partner with a brand I have always loved and be given the chance to create something that really plays with genres, texture and colour; exploring fashion and what it means to express yourself stylistically – it’s been really exciting!” Sarr-Jamois says.
The collaboration will be available on Thursday, April 27, on FRAME-store.com and FRAME stores, plus exclusively with Selfridges, Net-A-Porter, Bongenie Switzerland, Bergdorf Goodman, and Hampden.

The Crystal Jean is the ultimate luxe pair of denim, combining the decadence of Swarovski’s more than 125-year legacy and mastery with FRAME’s craftmanship of well-loved rigid denim. The show-stopping design, which took 120 hours to complete, consists of a low-slung, straight-leg silhouette with over 50,000 Swarovski crystals in an iridescent chocolate brown. Pair it with a white tank top such as the Crochet Trim Tank and kitten heels to let these bejeweled pants be the “wow” factor of your outfit.
