Jessica Belly-Rolls Out Plus Sized Denim
August 15th, 2005 at 3:17 pm by Sarah Jean Snarker » Bookmark on del.icio.us » Digg It?Jessica Simpson has debuted her denim line for plus sizes. The sized 12-24 jeans are available at Avenue stores for $58.
In the same PEOPLE article that posted this quick bit of news, there was some juicy info on the fashion from The Dukes of Hazzard. Whether I appreciate the fashion quality of the film’s wardrobe or not, I do enjoy reading this much detail about clothing.
“It’s the cornerstone of the whole look. We started with dozens of cuts of jeans, colors, fits. We cut them off, washed them to give them a raw edge and then Jessica walked into trying on 25 pairs,” Tyrrell tells the Associated Press. “All her wardrobe fits into one box because everything is minuscule.”
Compared to what Catherine Bach wore on the original ’70s TV series, Simpson’s pants sit lower on the hips, but the “hem” actually looks a tad bit longer than the shorts that hit Bach above her hip bone.
The hem on the front part of the thigh arcs up, then it arcs down around the hips into a downward curve in the back to help keep the rear of the shorts in place. “When they’re hanging on a hanger, they’re minuscule,” Tyrrell says.
Simpson also wears a wallet and chain that clips to her belt – a custom-made leather one with a floral pattern, AP reports.
Also, while Bach added a little extra nylon sheen to her legs in the TV series, Simpson goes bare. At the foot of it all: red leather sandals with ankle straps and gold-colored spike heels.
“They’re not just hot,” Tyrrell says, “they’re tough (and) all things you could’ve gotten in Hazzard County.”
