Jeans are a staple in everybody's closet. Your grandpa had them, your mom wore them, even your children's children will most likely wear them. Jeans are one of the most enduring fashion garments in history. It has come a long way from being workman's wear. Now every designer seems to have his own take on jeans, but no matter what shape, color and style it comes in, people can't seem to get enough of it
Jeans are considered as a symbol of American culture but it actually originated in two countries outside of the United States. Jeans are made of denim fabric and denim originated from Nimes, a town in France, and in India where dungarees were first worn. Dungarees were made of denim fabric.
It would seem that there isn't a style, shape or design that wasn't integrated into jeans. Perhaps because it is such a versatile piece of clothing that numerous designers have molded it into whatever design and style that they could think of. They can have embroidery on them, they can be studded with gemstones or they can be dyed. There is practically no limit to what you can do with a pair of jeans.
Over the years, jeans have also undergone a variety of cuts and fits. Some of the more popular ones are:
- Bootleg or boot cut jeans
- Skinny jeans
- Bell bottoms
- Low-rise jeans
