Throwback Thursdays- American Designer Jeans
Posted by jerry mckinish on 1/20/2012

Todays Throwback thursdays post comes from deep in my childhood memory. I recall back in the late 70′s early 80′s my Mom somehow got a hold of some “Designer” jeans and T-shirts and was selling them to friends and such through house parties. I remember her raving, “Oh these are DESIGNER jeans”. I am trying to recall the exact brand, but I am quite certain it was Sassoon Jeans, it could have been Sergio Valente though. I remember they were super fitted jeans with a fancy logo on the back pocket. She also had some baby doll style T-shirts with the brand name real big and bold across the front. I am certain it is these childhood memories that inspired me to love fashion at a very young age. Not to mention, my Mom sewed alot of clothes from paper patterns that could be purchased at your local fabric store. I remember helping her put all of the pins to hold the paper pattern to the fabric before she started cutting. Anyway, this is my inspiration for todays post. Check out these nostalgic TV commercials and vintage magazine ads from Sassoon Jeans, Jordache Jeans, Gloria Vanderbilt, Sergio Valente and Calvin Klein featuring Brook Shields.

So, if ya thought skinny jeans were a recent trend of the New Millenium, you are wrong. They came about 40 years ago, I don’t think they had the wonderful invention of Spandex in these jeans though!
