A cotton denim jumpsuit and a cropped jacket by Dickies are part of Ford Motor Company’s new collection with “Euphoria” actress and car enthusiast Sydney Sweeney.
The trio reunited for a second apparel and accessories collection designed to empower female motorheads. The first launched in March and focused on reimagined Dickies workwear with touches of light blue inspired by Sweeney’s vintage Ford Bronco. The collection was quickly restocked after the first drop sold out in under 35 hours, Ford reported.

The new collection is inspired by the 1965 Mustang the actress named “Britney” after the original color “Brittany Blue.” Sweeney recently featured her beloved Mustang on her @syds_garage TikTok account, where more than 1.6 million followers consume videos of her restoring and fixing cars.
The collection includes a dark indigo zip-up coverall, a tan unlined work jacket with light blue racing stripes on the back, and a cropped T-shirt. Pieces are finished with a “Syd’s Garage” custom patch and a Dickies logo patch. A corduroy hat and keychain are also available.
“For nearly 60 years, Mustang has represented freedom and self-expression,” said Erica Martin, Ford marketing communications manager. “Collaborating with Sydney and her love for her 1965 Mustang celebrates what that can look like. For Sydney, it meant embracing a new hobby to restore the vehicle of her dreams, and designing a clothing line that makes women feel comfortable and empowered to do the same.”
To showcase the collection, Ford enlisted the help of female auto-restoration enthusiasts Adri Law, Gelica Peralta, Sandy Rancatore, Isabelle Rosa, and Lauren Fox. They model the collection in an online lookbook, which offers step-by-step instructions for basic vehicle maintenance, such as changing a car battery and checking tire pressure, brake fluid, and oil.
“I love working in the garage and was so excited to partner with Ford on a clothing line that’s comfortable in and out of the shop,” Sweeney said in a statement. “I was so thrilled that Ford wanted to use auto enthusiasts to model the clothing and create content that teaches people how to do basic maintenance tasks on their vehicles. Being able to take my car into my own hands has been so empowering for me – and I hope this can inspire others who may have never considered working on their vehicle themselves to give it a try.”
The collection is available now on merchandise.ford.com and retails for $14.99-$119.
