Right from the days of the original gold miners till present times, Denim continues to be the fashion staple and world would come to a halt without it as stated by international fashion world. Denim trends are undergoing steady changes globally today, some extremely different resulting in an assortment of designs, purposes and certainly the inspiration. Denim has excelled the boundaries still one thing presently regulates Denim world a calling to its origins, designs motivated by hard-wearing work clothes.

Based on the state of the art techniques of finishing, latest dying processes and obvious styling has continuously raised the attractiveness of Denims. Most specifically, the Sulphur dyeing methods with emphasis on necessary chemical washes and mechanical techniques of which the forbearers certainly are acid washes, dirty washes, some sand washes, whickering and tear and repair techniques.

Generally the shapes are straight legged in Europe but still the accents of cigarette jeans of the bye-gone years are found. This tapered shape results in fabrics made of varying combinations of cotton, polyester and elastane. The unisex sharing of definite trends much in fashion prominently emphasized front and back pockets in special, specific treatments above the front pockets at the waist hem along with an overall focus on the upper half of the garment. The absolute motive behind is roughness, primitive looks and the attitude some how declaring the careless feeling about what the world thinks about the worn-out or the ragged look. Of course the latest fashion is for finishing that produces white line appearing to be the wrinkles near the fork and on the thighs and at times even on the knees.

The lot of patches that creates tussle in women, back pockets strangely stitched with some headwork and even some torn peripheries. The latest popular are the cropped jeans particularly liked with turned up hem with appealing button plackets at the side seam hems. Unlike thick stem stitching is gradually hinted at like in the denim dungarees 100% styled with prominence on front side hips.

This is the addition of the same story though in more of an extreme. However, the vintage washed or dirty colored or even faded jeans are in more demand in addition to the look as if one just came off the farming field, torn patches with frayed edges, buttons pockets, the old style of whiskering with prominence on knee and upper thighs and even grease stains type random finishing. Evenness is totally forgotten, out of two back pockets one is embroidered while the other is plain, on one leg the torn effect is given - abrasion techniques resulting in intention pilling, and ripped jeans with slight print patch pockets. The disobedient moods is more encouraged by embroidered back pockets having the logos like sea dragons and pirates along with suggestions of restrained riveting reserved for future.

The US markets talks about the combination; quite a different story with definite suggestions of the European Markets. Nevertheless, the majority of the American women prefer the slight flare at the bottom while the skin fit jeans known as the drainpipe are gradually crawling behind as the next preferred. America is truly the melting pot. Overall fashion of tapered shape is continuously increasing. This is because of the stretch tendency; curve hugging jeans with the higher rise although the collection of the low rises just cannot be totally ignored.

The composition of the cotton with spandex or elastane though not very frequent, best branded jeans in this section swank of crosshatched weaving that flattens the tummy yet are the straight cut loose through the top for a slouch fit-tilted rise which helps eradicate the waistline gaps and provides additional coverage at the back. Like Europe, the fashion on the hip pockets also exists of course at the lower than jeans original levels. Faded front patch pockets have overlapped edges and partly attached belts that tie up have embroidery.

Abrasions on the thighs and knees is seen, and zip fly's with button closures are 'of the moment' while straight leg styling, when seen, is cut close from the thigh down through the knee for a lean look that can be cuffed or tucked into a pair of boots. The back yoke seems to be important and front whiskering and fading is seen on the thighs. A top brand shows a relatively new entrant to the US women's jeans market; distressed sanding detail and fine lines of faded creasing down the front and back along with topstitching on the front pocket. This is suggestive of new trends which also include various types of belt hoops (e.g. crisscrossed), and metallic accents.

Among the American men's denim market, the 'jolly jean' is well liked and reinforces the popularity of super soft denim. The 'twisted leg seam' is also going strong, as is the vogue of yellow and orange seam stitching. Other trends include back flap pockets, horse shoe embroidery and logo patches on back pockets and heavy distressing with peeks of colourful fabric through ground in holes and navy stitches to repair them.

The winner of all trends in this category is the priority given to techniques such as hand sanding, layered and sanding, hand brushing, slubbing and washes such as the 'Morocco wash' and 'Jamaica wash'. The entire look is a 'worn in', vintage one and future trends lined up in the grapevine definitely include baked in creases, especially at the hems.
