Beyond just a web site

In 2015, Amy Leverton did something extraordinary. She brought out her book Denim Dudes, as a tribute to all of those talented and passionate individuals that strive to make denim what it is today – a resilient fashion statement that’s withstood the test of time.

 

This is a street style book that gets up-close and personal into some of the most intimate aspects of the lives of those dudes behind denim. And based on how well the book – and its companion denim related website – is being received, it looks like Mission Accomplished for Amy Leverton.

So, how did Ms. Leverton get from denim trend forecasting and fashion designing, to author extraordinaire? Happenstance – actually! A friend, who knew well the immense knowledge and experience Amy had of the denim industry, mentioned she should write about it. And the next thing you know Ms. Leverton had produced her book Denim Dudes – Street Style Vintage Workwear Obsession.

 

As a true connoisseur of all things denim, Amy Leverton wanted to create something with a difference – not just a historical account of how a pair of jeans came to be. She tapped that knowledge, and her vast network of fellow denim lovers, and combined that passion with her own love for street photography.

 

The result: Denim Dudes comes to life as a street style book that provides an insider look into what the denim industry has to offer. From street-style photos, to true-life accounts of the dudes that live and breathe denim, the book explores it all in detail.

 

You’ll find personal interviews of real-life denim afficianodos (like Italian denim fashion designer Adriano Goldschmied) and dudettes that are so committed to denim, that they’ve made it their life’s ambition to build upon a denim legacy that started centuries ago.

 

The book Denim Dudes, and its companion website are an invaluable resource – not just for denim designers and industry professionals, but for anyone that owns a great pair of jeans!
