The Fall Winter collection of Lee Europe is dominated by glossy laminated jackets and polished denims. The Knox Scooper polished denim deep polished regular jeans look amazingly chic and the way they accentuate the models lea legs is really something to notice.

This is further complimented by the AL Jacket Tyvek Pearl lamination in black colour. The presence of many zips and the importance given to gloss suggests that shiny stuff is back in vogue for men in Europe. If you are not interested in shiny jackets, you could try the old western style with checked shirts and low slung blue jeans which are classics nevertheless.

Lee understands that Europeans tend to be more fashion conscious than the Americans and that is perhaps why there is a stress on gloss and shine among European designs. Lee is one of the more popular brands in Eastern Europe than in the more affluent Western Europe. Lee also has separate collections in Asia Pacific, North America and elsewhere. You could try and purchase them from any of their flagship stores across the world. So go ahead and live your Lee dream.

Love it, hate it, but the truth is you cannot ignore it! We are talking about the £1,060 worth pair of denims being sold under the Balmain tag that has create ripples among the fashion world and critics. Everyone’s asking, of the pair is worth the big price tag?

Designer Christophe Decarnin is up defending his creation’s price saying that the expert workmanship gone into its construction has no match. Well, let’s give it to Decarnin there for these white jeans have a lot of attention paid to detail. In fact, the spirit of motorcycle leathers has been captured pretty well here. We like the bold metal zips on the pockets and the ankles of the skinny legs. In other words, they definitely ‘look’ like designer jeans.

All that said, some of the wearers of the jeans have felt far from attractive in them. In fact, they felt close to the Michelin man. Ouch! Frankly, we don’t have the faintest idea as to how over a thousand pounds jeans should feel like. Why don’t you try and tell us!

A pair of jeans is a must-have in anybody’s wardrobe. Which day, after all, is complete without slipping into a comfortable pair of jeans that make you look as good as you feel?

Blue jeans may have been as popular as Elvis’ blue suede shoes, but Balmain gives you a reason to jump off the bandwagon and hope into a pair of black jeans. With patchwork embroidery and rivet work, the jeans have low slung back pockets and flared bottoms. The most stunning piece of work on the jeans is the studded and embroidered ankh over the right thigh. Ankhs may signify life and the balance of the sexes for the Egyptians, but this piece of clothing is intended solely to flatter the legs of our fair ladies.

Unfortunately, the Balmain jeans will flatter only a few select women with a price tag of over $10,000. Pre-ordering the jeans at LuisaViaroma means you can get your legs in these by March 31, 2009.
