Impacting your generation has to be one of the greatest adrenaline rushes in the world.
Having a positive impact on your own life is a great life accomplishment, but if you can have an impact on millions, can you really begin to understand that kind of power?
Twiggy did during her time period.
Lesley Lawson is widely known by the nickname Twiggy.
She is an English model, actress, and singer. A British cultural icon, she was a prominent teenage model in swinging sixties London.
Twiggy was initially known for her thin build (thus her nickname) and her androgynous look consisting of big eyes, long eyelashes, and short hair.
In 1966, she was named “The Face of 1966” by the Daily Express and voted British Woman of the Year.
By 1967, Twiggy had modeled in France, Japan, and the US, and landed on the covers of Vogue.
For many who were around during Twiggy’s reign, she was the absolute it chick and when it came to conversations about fashion, she and her jet set lifestyle were on the lips of millions.
Then there was Farrah.
Farrah Fawcett was an American actress and artist.
On the hit television show Charlie’s Angels she played a private investigator who works for a wealthy and mysterious businessman, along with two other glamorous female detectives, played by Kate Jackson and Jaclyn Smith.
The show immediately became the most popular series on television, earning record ratings and a huge audience. All three actresses became very popular, but Farrah became by far the best known. She won People’s Choice Award for Favorite Female Performer in a New TV program in 1977.
A four-time Emmy Award nominee and six-time Golden Globe Award nominee, Fawcett rose to international fame when she posed for her iconic red swimsuit poster – which became the best-selling pin-up poster in history.
As if that wasn’t enough, young girls in the western world we’re obsessed with her hairstyle too.
Many young girls in our present time period are obsessed with Khloe Kardashian.
Khloé is an American television personality, socialite, model, businesswoman and entrepreneur.
Since 2007, she and her family have starred in the reality television series Keeping Up with the Kardashians. Its success has led to the creation of spin-offs including Kourtney and Khloé Take Miami and Khloé & Lamar.
With sisters Kourtney and Kim, Kardashian is involved in the retail and fashion industries. They have launched several clothing collections and fragrances, and additionally released the book Kardashian Konfidential in 2010.
Given her global influence it came as no surprise that she had maximum success in launching her highly sought after Good American jeans.
We have to admit, we would love to get a little closer to Khloe as well. Especially when she wears her jeans.
We want to hear more. At goodamerican.com they oblige. “GOOD AMERICAN is a denim focused fashion brand designed for a curvier, sexier and stronger shape.
The pivotal brand originated from a conversation between Khloe Kardashian and Emma Grede about what it means to be a woman today. “We believe everybody deserves to be shown off. Fashion should be made to fit women, not the other way around. Body ideals really have shifted in the last few years”, says Emma.
“Emma and I both agreed there was something missing from the denim community,” says Khloe. “Whenever we bought new jeans, it was hard for us to find a pair that fit our body types, and even when we did they’d always need alterations. We knew if we both had this problem, there must be tons of girls who did too. So we set out to make a denim line that’s sexy and flattering, and made to fit you – not the other way round.”
It takes one hundred hands to make one pair of Good American jeans.
In Los Angeles, pattern makers, sewers and garment technicians among many other artisans, have lent their expertise to the intensive process of luxury denim manufacturing.
At Good American we are committed to preserving the handmade processes. It is what makes our premium denim so special. We have chosen to make our jeans right here in America, using the finest imported fabrics for an optimal fit.
We have made this decision to preserve the craft and artistry that employs so many all over the country and most importantly, to achieve our goal of creating a jean like no other.
GOOD AMERICAN is available exclusively on goodamerican.com and in select Nordstrom stores.”
Okay, we are impressed. We love the look for many reasons including that it is very inclusive of providing designs specifically for curvier women as well.
As you might guess, Khloe’s jeans are the rave of the fashion world and when they start stories with the word Whoa, you know the product involved has to be exceptional.
At instyle.com they scream, “Whoa, this is a big deal. One month after Khloé Kardashian and her business partner Emma Grede launched their denim line Good American (you can learn all about the making of it here), the two saw so many sales—they hit the $1 million mark on the first day—that their fledgling brand broke a world record as the biggest denim launch in fashion history.
Clearly, they’re onto something. Founded on the celebration of curves (versus shunning them), Good American has found success in providing denim that makes good on their promise to actually fit.”
The global site thesun.co.uk is impressed as well. “They claim to give women a stronger shape and enhance curves, but when you don’t have a Kardashian booty to work with, are they actually any more flattering than your average pair of jeans?
The high-rise style and pocket design in the Good legs range work together to help pinch you in at the waist and accentuate your bum.”
They concluded that the general consensus is they’re pretty flattering – hugging and giving in all of the right places.
Looking at many photos (for research purposes) depicting women of all shapes and sizes sticking their bums out, we agree. Good American Jeans hug women in all of the right places.
So for a young beautiful woman like Khloe who has one of the greatest impacts on women of her generation, anytime she is ready, we are happy to give her a hug.
