They were invented by two men, Jacob Davis and Levi Strauss. The jeans were initially made in two different fabrics, these being brown duck and blue denim. The two men had the idea to put rivets into mens work pants so that they wouldn't fall apart, this was the birth of jeans. ]]> 2021-09-13 19:11:03 UTC https://padlet.com/40094627/z4ql6fd3kgoi1e0j/wish/1737166857 40094627 https://padlet.com/40094627/z4ql6fd3kgoi1e0j/wish/1737341452 Jeans were worn as workwear throughout the 1920s to 1930s, these were typically worn by cowboys, miners and labourers in the American West. Jeans drew a line between the middle class and upper class. In this time you wouldn't be seeing the rich upper class wearing jeans.
Jeans then came into mainstream culture by Hollywood taking the look onto the screens. A double arch of orange stitching was added by Strauss to identify them as Levi's. Belt loops were also seen in 1922. ]]> 2021-09-13 20:38:05 UTC https://padlet.com/40094627/z4ql6fd3kgoi1e0j/wish/1737341452 40094627 https://padlet.com/40094627/z4ql6fd3kgoi1e0j/wish/1737373447 In the 1950s the bad boys began to start wearing 'cool blue' jeans. Marlon Brando and James Dean popularised the image of denim, they wore them because they wanted to rather than wearing them for work. This is when Hollywood played on the 'bad boy' look and denim jeans began to be more than just workwear. They wore cuffed, boxy styles and gave them a teenage idol, sex appeal vibe. Rock'n'roll stars semented the style, rebellious teens took hold of this style against the status quo. ]]> 2021-09-13 20:56:56 UTC https://padlet.com/40094627/z4ql6fd3kgoi1e0j/wish/1737373447 40094627 https://padlet.com/40094627/z4ql6fd3kgoi1e0j/wish/1737382188 In the 60s jeans were more accepted in generations, they became more lighters and softer than they were in the 50s.
The youthful, peace, love and flower power movement embraced the blue jean. They were worn as bellbottoms, low-rise, hip huggers. They showed a freedom from the norms of clothing and were worn as a form of self expression.  Double denim and jean jackets also made their first appearance and became a fashion statement and trend! ]]> 2021-09-13 21:02:20 UTC https://padlet.com/40094627/z4ql6fd3kgoi1e0j/wish/1737382188 40094627 https://padlet.com/40094627/z4ql6fd3kgoi1e0j/wish/1737388068 High fashion began to take interest into denim. Calvin Klein were one of the firsts to show blue jeans on the runway. They changed the idea of jeans instead of them being something for work they decided to make them a must-have garment.

By the 1990s Versace, Dolce & Gabbana and Dior also entered the jeans market. ]]> 2021-09-13 21:06:12 UTC https://padlet.com/40094627/z4ql6fd3kgoi1e0j/wish/1737388068 40094627 https://padlet.com/40094627/z4ql6fd3kgoi1e0j/wish/1737406533 Denim began to have many different styles and trends and they were put into different groups and subgroups.
