Découvrez le livre de 128 pages "Jazzy Jeans" de Mickey Baskett, paru en octobre 2008.


«Ah, yes, the ubiquitous jeans. But the ones featured here aren't your ordinary jeans. No, with this amply, colorfully, and even joyously illustrated manual in hand, you can customize yours jeans, or someone else's, for that matter, into a one-of-a-kind pair. Introductory pages address denim in terms of fabric characteristics and suggest tips on how to "distress" it. The author then launches a general discussion of the types of embellishments available to jeans designers, including applique, embroidery, and painting. The final third of the book is devoted to specific makeover projects, ranging from a swirl skirt to a painted chef's apron to even a jeans journal (a diary in which the paper and the covers are actually made from denim), with clear directions and material listings supplied for each project».
