Soviet’s Super Denim Secrets
Soviet’s Super Denim Secrets
Jeans are a trusted go-to item in almost everyone's wardrobe. And it's no wonder: they are easy to wear, can be dressed up or down, there is a fit suitable to every body type, and a colour to suit every taste.However, there are also a few downsides to your perfect pair: Like the fact that you’re not supposed to wash real denim because it will fade or age your jeans. Maybe they are a bit short for your ultra long legs, or they scrunch up when you wear them with boots.
Whatever your problem is, Soviet has a life-hack for every jean-problem you might have:
Rocking Jeans with boots, especially if they aren’t a skinny fit:
1. Put on your slimmest pair of non-skinny jeans. The more fitted they are, the better
2. Fold up the leg of your jean to mid-calf, making sure it is neat and straight
3. Pull the extra material at the back of your leg out and fold it over, making a tight crease
4. If your boots are loose enough, you can fold the leg of your jean one more time, to hold the crease in place
5. However, if you require a tighter fit, slip your thinnest, tightest pair of socks over the leg of your jeans to hold the fold in place. Your socks should cover the entire fold of the leg
6. Finally, put on your boots, making sure that your sock, or the fold of the leg, is not visible
Saving your denims from a holy mess:
1. Check your jeans every now and again for any holes that might be coming. Remember: prevention is better than cure
2. If you have any pre-holes, clear away any frayed warp threads (these are the blue bits that go first, leaving white threads behind)
3. Turn your jeans inside out, in order to sew on the inner-side. This makes patching less visible
4. Straighten the fabric around the hole to ensure the fabric is smooth and wrinkle-free
5. Sew zig-zag patterns back and forth until you reach the desired hole coverage
Mean-free clean jeans:
1. Spot clean stains on your jeans with some soapy water, or vodka
2. Leave to dry completely
3. Fold your jeans twice over
4. Put jeans in a jiffy bag and place in the freezer for 24 hours
5. Thaw and wear – clean and unfaded
A new perspective on an old pair:
If your jeans have big holes, wear a pair of lacy stockings underneath. This will give them quite an interesting look.
If your jeans are too short, or your legs too long, sew a piece of lace at the bottom. This will ad a good 5 cm to your length, and will make your jeans look super sexy.
Dress the right shoes with the right jeans:
1. Wear boots with skinny jeans
2. Fold your jean's legs twice to wear with flats, or wear slouchy, loose jeans with pumps
3. Fold your jean's legs once with booties or ankle boots
4. Always wear platforms with wide-legged jeans. Never flat shoes
5. Wear high-heels with boyfriend jeans
