It’s a California crossover.
Jennifer Meyer of the namesake jewelry brand and Citizens of Humanity have teamed on a six-piece capsule.
Launching Wednesday, the Citizens of Humanity x Jennifer Meyer collection spans denim, leather, silk and flannel, including the debut of the Jen Straight Leather Pant and the Blaine Jean in Parasol, a new wash made from regenerative cotton. It’s priced between $298 and $1,298.
“I’ve always loved their sensibility,” Meyer said of Citizens of Humanity. “It’s relaxed, cool and elevated without ever feeling like it’s trying too hard. That’s exactly how I like to dress, and exactly how I wanted this collection to feel.”

The inspiration came from her closet, she said. “The pieces I was always searching for and could never quite get exactly right. A jean with a perfect fit and a wash that feels like you’ve owned it forever. A leather pant in just the right cut. The kind of leather jacket you can throw over anything. From there it became about narrowing in on the pieces that felt essential. Like the most perfect flannel with a dreamy slipdress.”
For Citizens of Humanity, the collaboration comes as the brand continues to expand beyond denim.
“For us, the most meaningful partnerships begin with a genuine creative connection,” said Marianne McDonald, creative director of Citizens of Humanity. “With Jen, there was already such a natural overlap in aesthetic and philosophy, that effortless California way of dressing that feels considered but never overdone. We’ve been continuing to expand the Citizens wardrobe beyond denim, and this felt like a very natural way to explore that. Jen brought her own perspective, while the collection still feels completely at home within Citizens.”
Meyer said there is considerable overlap between the two brands’ customers, describing the shared consumer as someone who values easy, considered pieces over trends.
“She likes getting dressed to feel effortless, even when a lot of thought went into making it that way,” Meyer said. “That’s very much the Jennifer Meyer customer, and it’s very much the Citizens of Humanity customer too. So this felt less like reaching a new audience and more like giving our shared customer exactly what she’d been asking for.”
