When expensive designer jeans initially emerged, with Jordache as well as Calvin Klein in the 80’s and later with 7, Joe’s, Resident’s of Humanity and also their ilk, brand names seemed to intend to convince you that their pants deserved $100+ (appears quaint currently, does not it?) by sewing intriguing patterns on the back pockets. Seven Denims might have been one of the most well-known, with it’s squiggly line (and occasionally a stylized take on the number “7”). Brands like Miss Me and Real Faith went outrageous with extra-thick sewing as well as bling. Citizens of Humanity’s branding was additionally very identifiable with it’s cursive, lowercase “h.”.
Inevitably there was a reaction, and also attractive stitching on back pockets eventually appeared passe as well as also a bit tacky. The blank back pocket was the only method to go; apparent denim branding was out.
But given that fashion is a constant yin and also yang, the traditional back pockets appear to be returning right into favor. I’m basing this prediction on an extremely small sample size (of one), so quote me at your very own risk, but I’m calling it: we’ll be seeing more expensive back pockets towards the end of this year and also in 2018.
Instance in factor, these Moussy denims from the brand’s May 2017 lookbook have a very Jordache ambiance that really feels fresh and also I’m type of loving. What can I say, as high as I try not to fall victim to trends, I am weak in their presence!
