What Happened to Wide Leg Jeans?

Posted by Melody Wilson on April 14, 2009 at 10:33am

The big news in jeans last year was the wide leg jean. (See justjared.com, thefashionablehousewife.com, and stylelist.com.)

What happened??

It seems to have virtually disappeared. The Gap is now highlighting three options for jeans: Long & Lean, Curvy, and Low Rise Boot Cut.

Their Long and Lean jean is flared. Curvy and Low Rise Boot Cut are boot cut. They have backed off completely from the wide leg jean.

It stands to reason, since boot cut and flared jeans are so figure-flattering, slimming the th

Tickle Me Tuesday: Cosabella

Posted by Macala Wright on April 14, 2009 at 12:00am

Tickle Me Tuesdays has become my favorite topic to write about. I feel it’s fitting to put it under “Retail Therapy” as well. I know there are hundreds of blogs about fashion, style and clothing – Tuesdays are my contribution. This Tuesday is dedicated to one of the most amazing bras I’ve ever purchased.As a petite, yet naturally busty girl, I have one heck of time finding bras that actually fit. Just because something is my size doesn’t mean it’s going to flatter me or support me. And as 30 app

MFG.com: The Fashion World Is Not Ready

Posted by Melody Wilson on April 13, 2009 at 1:41pm

It sounds like such a great idea, doesn't it? Sourcing made simple via the internet. A site that connects designers and manufacturers using spec sheets and a formal bidding process. No more phone calls, faxes, or sending samples just to get a bid.

But in practice, I just don't think we're ready for mfg.com. When I submitted spec sheets for Pixyworld's dresses & shorts last summer, the response I got was somewhat puzzling.

Of all the hundreds of suppliers (domestic and overseas) they had listed, th

Full Belted Skirts are Only for the Few

Posted by Melody Wilson on April 12, 2009 at 8:00pm

Have you noticed the growing popularity of the belted full skirt?

I was on a discussion board (Body Type and Body Image) recently, where someone was asking whether this type of skirt would work for her body type. My question is, who does it work for??

OK, it looks great on these models. But it seems to me it is not for most women. It is so waist-conscious, and the fuller styles require slender hips as well!

One thing is for sure: It is not a style for my children's clothing line. Toddler girls' w

Fashion merchandising is the combination of the processes that a new fashion item must go through to be available in mass quantities to the consumer after it is left the hands of the designer. Fashion merchandising often gets confused with fashion marketing and although they work together, they are two very different things. To understand fashion merchandising completely, it is important to examine the role that fashion merchandising plays in manufacturing, buying, promoting and selling fashion

Posted by Sunil Budania on April 12, 2009 at 7:02am
