It is a simple fact: Denim is one of humankind’s best inventions. And it was everywhere on the spring runways: from street-wise labels like Kenzo and Marques’Almeida, to those in the highest echelons of fashion. Valentino jeans? Yes, please.

 

Regardless of your age or your position in life, denim is a basic. From blue jeans to dresses, it’s a fabric we can rely upon to capture our style, our mood. Dress it up or down, washed, distressed, or embellished, it fills a need in our lives and our wardrobes.

It’s American at its best.
