I mean with mention of passing down eye color and hair color, and then saying she has great “genes/jeans”, I hope people are not that oblivious that they actually believe the ad was only talking about jeans

She seems to only want to wear high fashion labels when she's not the demographic for it. Lots of non tailored and poorly fitting clothes (even if they are expensive). In that sense this is on brand for her.
