Denim Finishes

Denim is clearly a global presence, it not only exists in every country in the world, but in many of these it has become the single most common form of everyday attire.The ultimate display of detail is found in true vintage denim. The story of each wearer has been indelibly recorded on each pair- each abrasion pattern, area of wear and whiskering, each grease stain are tell tale signs of what each pair has lived through. To achieve this effect naturally takes years of wearing in dry denim without washing- the patinas created through wear are completely personal to you and tell a very special story.This also takes a great deal of patience. A lot of blood and sweat has gone into discovering techniques to speed up denim aging and wear processes that produce a naturally vintage look. The majority of this very skilled work is done by hand and the process is very time consuming.This research aims to decode every step that takes place in achieving this look and to analyse the cost that is incurred at every step. Further, it illustrates a comparative study between two washing laundries of Lee. This comparative study will help the team to allocate their designs to the laundries efficiently, as the results of my study provide them with information of which laundry is producing enhanced results- visually. Further the study focuses on a comparative study on the cost breakdown of both the laundries, and find out the reason for the difference in their pricing and suggest the most suitable options for the competitive pricing of garment which will lead to cost saving and hence more profitability.
