Only a few objects have stood the test of time as Denim has.And while 'The evolution of Denim' has been in line with men and some women as well ,who are now a different breed altogether .Its denim which had to bear the cuts & flinching in the name of styling . So while being Sober & Gentlemanly has not gone out of fashion,the good old trousers are now targeted at a very niche shelf of the closet. Denim has its own history but still celebrates our times like nobody else ,as rugged and worn-out as it may be,it gets better with time.Interestingly,Blues are a turn on when it comes to denim.So while the forms (design) vary,' Blue' is the sacred color of Denim religion.Though the wearer might have a hidden agenda of differentiating thyself in unearthing that 'So Simple YET So Different' piece from the busy lanes of Fashion Street or Sarojani Nagar.Denim, 'The Great Social Equalizer' hugs every body without caring for the social,gender,economic or the age divide.
The colour 'Blue' as an adjective signifies calm and peace , as a noun it indicates turbulence and depression, nevertheless 'Blue' seems to be the mood of the moment.It is also poles apart from the general social behavior of accepting things the way they are.Blue Denim is the new Khaki of all those who want to break apart from the 'Chalta Hai' attitude. While, a denim wearer cannot be blindly associated with 'can-do' attitude, it certainly is associated with the restless youth who are fed up with the way things are .Denim is an uprising by the common man against the elite, the working class against the corrupt system.Its the a manifestation of the struggles in our everyday life and never giving up.
'The White Tee', a poor cousin of 'Blue Denim' has also made its mark though a colourless one. A priceless possession and probably the only thing without which your wardrobe cannot be deemed complete. Prince charming to the poor paper boy,white tee looks equally good on both. One of the many reasons to wear one is to portray yourself as humble and trustworthy. And being trustworthy is never going to be out of fashion.The enormity of designs,fits and fabrics makes it one of the most versatile male garment which can someday threaten the hegemony of ladies tops which are miles ahead when it comes to provide variety.
The journey of the white tee has been a little comfortable and the arrival,celebrated.Made by the fabric and colour of choice for ages, the white tee or shirt becomes an ideal choice be it party or playground.Its as if, the tee has a personality which matches up to the occasion.Like, an actor moving from one skin to the other,it goes along with denim or khakis with equal elan .Once in a white tee,one feels like himself and this is irrespective of what number he or she is . Being elegant and high maintenance associates the white tee or shirt with class as the common man does not find the time and luxury to maintain it.
Together they form the formidable combination that everyone aspires to be,durable and clean of any stains.So, the next time you see this combination, try pick one as soon as possible.Its a revolution of the attire against the imposing dress code.Its like liberalization of the clothes from the shackles of the the mediocrity.Denim & White Tee are now happily married to each other and cool looks is a family tradition .It is in line with the men being made,rough on the edges,soft at heart , metro-sexual in their approach. Long live 'Denim', the unsung hero of modern times. :-)
