How Green Are Your Blue Jeans ?

Most of us won't even consider where or how are jeans were made. If they look good and fit nicely we're going to buy them. So how green are your blue jeans? The chances are, even if you wanted to know, you will not be able to find any information about this side to your jeans. Most jeans are made in developing countries, with few environmental controls and restrictions. Dyes, residues and waste are pumped into the local rivers and streams. Ethics are questionable too, with many factories employing children and other cheap sources of labour. I wonder how many designers / big brands even take the time to visit their production facilities to see how their garments are made? Perhaps they should - it may change the whole way they think about their products! But not all brands are bad - take Dorinha Jeans Wear for example. since their launch back in 2001, Dorinha, the designer, has paid close attention to her chosen production plants ensuring that not only are the jeans made in an environmentally friendly manner, but the staff employed at these plants are treated fairly. It would be nice if more manufacturers followed her example.

Low rise maternity wear

Having spent many years in the fashion industry, I often wondered why women feel pressured into buying designer maternity jeanswear. Designer clothes by nature are expensive and it would be impractical for a pregnant women to buy jeans that fit every time her body changes in size over the 9 month period. Surely, the answer must be to go for the low rise, or ultra-low rise jeans available today. You can't hide your tummy, so why not be proud of it. Yes, your belly will ride over the top of your low rise jeans, but you can still cover up with a nice loose fitting top. Choosing the right pair for you will of course be a task in itself, but there are plenty of choices out there. The obvious option is to go for some super stretchy denim jeans or try "jeans" made from other fabrics such as moleton. These are not so easy to source in the UK (sites such as wearmyjeans.com have a good selection of Brazilian jeans) but would be well worth the effort. So before you rush out and buy specific maternity jeans, why not consider what is already there and available and more importantly, much cheaper!

The Original One Inch Zip

I recently discovered a UK based business selling ladies designer jeans wear by a Canadian company, Dorinha Jeans Wear. The thing that caught my eye was the tiny, very cute, original one inch zip! Yes, a teenie weenie one inch zip at the front of the jeans. The next obvious question was why??? Just a gimmick?? Well, I did a bit of research and I discovered that this was not a gimmick, but in fact a clever design piece. Have you ever sat down in a regular pair of jeans and wished you didn't get that bulky zip bulging at the front? well, the one inch zip solves this problem. However, to make it all work, you still need a good cut and a quality STRETCH denim to bring the whole design together. Still not convinced? Take a look at their website:

There are lots of styles available and a great variety of photo shots. You really get to see some of the great detailing that has gone into these jeans, not just in terms of the buttons, zip etc.. but more over the cut of the jeans - They look incredibly elegant and stylish and yes, i have just bought a pair on line and can't wait to try them on!!
