Millers Denim
“Iconic” is how I describe Denim, not just in the fashion world but as a global, cultural statement. From cowboys to Punk Rockers, Denim has certainly evolved through the decades. Originating in the Middle Ages in Nîmes France, a cotton fabric worn purely for durability, originally named serge de Nîmes, later shortened to “Denim”. The history and transformation of Denim leads us on a very interesting and colourful journey through the years.

DENIM THROUGH THE DECADES: 


1920’s-1930’s: The working man’s material. Denim was worn by miners and cowboys as it was a strong durable fabric, perfect for harsh conditions.

1950’s: “The Rebel”, Denim Jeans and jackets were made famous by Marlon Brando and James Dean, making it very popular with teenagers of the time.

1960s-1970’s: It was all about embellishment, embroidery, rhinestones and patchwork, and of course high waisted flares were all the rage.

1980’s: Lets take a perfectly good pair of jeans and attack them. This decade was all about distressing denim to make it look as worn and aged as possible. Stonewash, acid wash and ripped jeans were all the go with many people getting out the scissors and creating their own looks.

1990’s: Bib n’brace overalls were on trend and loose fitting baggy jeans worn low on the hips, the start of the trend of men’s boxer shorts being exposed on their waist.

2000 till today: Now there is a style name and colour for every type of denim jean, The boyfriend, the bootleg, skinny leg, straight leg, relaxed fit, high rise, low rise, coloured  and  printed denim.
