Enjoying work while achieving sustainable growth is the essence.

The story of the imogene + willie brand started way back as a seed of friendship between founders and now husband & wife, Matt and Carrie Eddmenson, when they first met as schoolyard buddies in Kentucky in the United States. Later on, they became coworkers at Carrie’s family business in denim manufacturing. When the company closed down, they still continued in their passion for denim and they set up shop by Granny White Pike in Nashville, Tennessee. In 2009, the old gas service station became their production facility, retail store and think tank for the brand. imogene + willie takes pride in using selvage fabrics or raw dry denim threads made exclusively for them by the vintage shuttle looms of North Carolina, alternatively revered as Cone Denim.

The name imogene + willie is an ode and a token of deep appreciation to Willie & Imogene, Leo & Sally, Anthony & Hazel and James H. & Gladys, who are their paternal and maternal grandparents. The brand, work culture and company signifies Matt and Carrie’s rich loving relationships with all of their grandparents. It represents the life lessons they have picked up and continue to learn from them, together with abundant memories and experiences they forever cherish.

imogene + willie is about the quality of work, heritage, love and most of all, family.

How to Dry Corn. To save for a rainy day or to provide nutrition during times of trouble, drying various meats, fruits and vegetables have been done for centuries. The best way of drying corn is on the cob using a modern oven. Dried corn can then be rehydrated for soups, popped on the cob or used as decorative elements.

DRYKORN, on the other hand, is a Kitzingen, Germany-based label known for its metropolitan, reachable and progressive styles which exudes a certain cool snobbish edge. The brand’s 70s luxury, preppy chic wardrobe and greaser rock & roll biker looks have grabbed the attention of media and fashionistas worldwide.

Founded in 1996 by Marco Goetz, the brand initially specialized in fashionable pants for men & women. Throughout the years, the label expanded its apparel lines into knitwear, jersey, suits, coats and accessories. Fabrics are mainly ordered in Italy and France. Today, DRYKORN is distributed internationally in Europe, North America and Asian/Middle Eastern countries such as China, Dubai, Japan and Russia.

Perhaps one of the most influential pairs in the history of the fashion world is none other than Dolce & Gabbana. Italian designers, Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana, started the company in 1985 in Milan, Italy with a debut collection at the Milano Collezioni New Talents. In 1989, they held their first women’s fashion show in Tokyo. The following year, the brand featured their first men’s collection. In 1990, Dolce & Gabbana opened their showroom in New York, 532 Broadway. The debut of another major line entitled, D&G Dolce&Gabbana, launched in 1994 as a youthful and contemporary apparel collection. Two years after, the company staged its first fashion show in New York for D&G Dolce&Gabbana. The new millennium brought collaborations with sports teams and famous personalities such as Madonna, introduction of sub-brand collections like D&G Junior, initiation of a new several fragrances & books, openings of international boutiques and flagship stores in major cities around the world.

Dolce & Gabbana has two central lines. Dolce&Gabbana, without spaces, specializes in luxury items. They are more formal and timeless and geared towards long-term trends. On the other hand, D&G, is a more casual line inspired by urban culture, youth movement and hyper trends of the changing seasons. Unfortunately, the D&G sub-brand is discontinued this year 2011.

Overall, Dolce & Gabbana is a luxury brand known for its stylistic originality and superior tailoring. It has been one of the forerunners of fashion utilizing its strong identity, innovation, unconventional designs and powerful Mediterranean flavour of its origins.

A black orchid is a mythical unicorn of the orchid flower world. There has been no orchid found to be truly black in color. Instead, the flower is a darker shade of blue which looks black to the naked eye. Black orchids are popular in stories involving witchcraft, fiction, spooky legends, myths and pop culture comic characters. They are believed to be mysterious and magical.

Just as the flower, Black Orchid denim also symbolizes rarity and beauty found in something simple yet affordable form. Founder, Julien Jarmoune, took his passion and talent to design clothes which uniquely flatter a woman’s figure. Many celebrities, including Jessica Alba, Fergie, Gwen Stefani, Demi Moore, Katherine Heigl, Dakota Fanning, AnnaLynne McCord, Hilary Duff, Nikki Reed, Paris Hilton, Marcia Cross and Emmy Rossum, have been spotted wearing these Black Orchid denim jeans out on the city streets.
