More Denim In The UK News

Denim is a hot topic in the UK newspapers at the moment and barely a week goes by without an article or two on my favourite subject. This week both The Times and The Guardian worked themselves into a bit of a tizzy concerning the dilemma of whether to wear high-waisted flared jeans, like the ones above from TopShop. The Times advises that you should "approach with extreme caution" whilst The Guardian is more positive concluding that "you don't need a (Kate) Moss-like body to look good in flares".

Ciara In High Waisted Bootcut Jeans

This month's celebrity denim trend is high waisted wide leg jeans. This look was actually kick-started last September when Kate Moss wore a pair of vintage Chloe jeans to the TopShop fashion show. Now in 2007 J Lo and Kylie have decided to get in on the act with varying degrees of success. This look is a tricky one to pull off though, if you get it wrong you can end up looking like a badly dressed child from the 1970s - that means you Geri Halliwell (see below).

18th Amendment are one of the brands that are responsible for introducing the new trend for high-waisted jeans. The label was started by Australian denim importer Rachel Rose who named it after the Amercian law banning the sale of alcohol, otherwise known at Prohibition. The collection is inspired by the era that followed when speakeasies, gangsters and flappers came into existence. That glamorous and decandent lifestyle is reflected in these long-legged, high-waisted jeans which are named after movie stars of the past such as Lauren Bacall (above) and Gina Lollobridgida (below).
