Wrangler vintage experience
April 1, 2005 | 12:00am
Wrangler recently celebrated 100 years of denim history at the M Café. That windy night, as they celebrated the centennial, fashionistas also revered the Wrangler Vintage Series that was featured in a mini fashion show. During the dressed down but ultimately glamorous event, it was a sight to behold how denims had evolved from a casual getup into an avant-garde piece that keeps consumers guessing where the next line will take them. At any given event, denim has been part of our fashion lifestyle which made me ask about people’s experiences with denim.
Christine San Diego
What jean style suits you best?
The boot-cut hipster since it makes me feel sexy and comfortable.
Em Lingao
What’s your favorite time to wear jeans?
All the time. I can’t get any more comfortable than that. It’s my all-day, everyday wear. I feel lucky we’re allowed to wear jeans at work.
RJ Ledesma
Do you like it button-fly or zip-fly?
I like button-fly because it opens with more drama and suspense.
Honey Obusan
How long have you had your favorite pair of jeans?
I’ve had them for about ten years now – it was actually my mother’s then she gave it to me.
Erika Fife
How does denim make you feel sexy?
By having nice slim cut jeans which allows me to show off those long legs without even showing skin.
Rhett Eala
Why do you love denims?
They feel comfortable.
Puey Quinones
Why do you think jeans are so fashionable?
Because they’re timeless and classic.
Morten Bremelhoej
How does denim make you feel like a man?
It feels genuine and original – something I always associate with the wild west where real dirty men did really dirty work.
Chere Du
What’s the wildest thing you’ve done in your denims?
Horseback riding at my dad’s farm in Bukidnon. It wasn’t supposed to be an adventure until I found out that the horse was wild!
Joy Lee
If you could only wear a pair of jeans for three straight days, what would you pair it with?
A plain white shirt with red sneakers, a printed long-sleeved shirt with pumps and a beaded top with stilettos.
Domini Primero
Have you ever gone out of the house with just your jeans on?
Yes. I used to walk my dog, George, a lot around the village just in my jeans.
