Designer Jeans – How to Find Your Style

Sunday, June 24th, 2007

Designer jeans have forever been worn as status symbols.  Joe, Avi and Ralph Nakash, commonly referred to as the Nakash brothers, initiated the “fashionable” aspect to designer jeans around 1978.  Their designer jeans brand, Jordache, sky-rocketed into fame within a brief period of time.

Designer jeans are frequently pricey. But, oftentimes they represent a good value because they offer an exceptional fit, superb comfort, and superior fabric. Also, sporting branded designer jeans makes a declaration about your personality and individuality. You will find that designer jeans can be purchased in a multitude of shapes, colors, and sizes. However, it is imperative to pay great attention when choosing a specific brand of designer jeans; your choice should not only look good, but also be comfortable. You shouldn’t sacrifice form for function, but who are we kidding, sometimes that’s unavoidable.

Brand Choice Your body is unique; a pair of designer jeans that looks good on your friend or favorite celebrity may not look good on you.  You will have to search for the pair of designer jeans that matches your body shape and highlights your best features. Luckily, there are several brands of great designer jeans in the market.  Designer jean brands like Seven Jeans and Citizens Jeans, are good starter-jeans.  From there, either the sky or your bank account is the limit.

For Looks The color and style of your designer jeans influences your entire wardrobe. Give it the attention its due when you make your personal designer jeans choice. Some people love tinted jeans, while others will favor pure indigo. Cloth pattern, quality, and composition, can be even more important than color. You have a wide selection of designer jeans patterns to choose from:

  • Crosshatch: This is denim with cross-stitch pattern woven into the fabric.
  • Frayed: As the name indicates, this style of designer jeans is frayed in different places, for example, around the pockets, at the leg bottom and at the waistline.
  • Distressed: These pairs of designer jeans are made to look worn out and beat up by opening the hems and allowing them to hang loose.
  • Whiskered: This name is derived by the impression the designer jeans give when worn – creases that resemble a cat’s whiskers surround the fly area.

For Feel Again, depending upon your body shape and your choice of style, you can choose between designer jeans that hug the body or those that will hang loose. Stretch denim is a style of jeans that have come into its own, as they have proven more comfortable than many other styles. As the name suggests, stretch jeans are made of denim material that has been woven with spandex so that they stretch and conform to your body when you move. Unlike regular jeans, they don’t tighten as you stoop or sit. However, they have been known to be hotter than their 100% cotton counterparts.  Regardless of the type of designer jeans that you decide on, remember to pick the style that fits your personality, not what you think would make you appear more trendy or popular.
