The History of Denim http://historybuff.com/history-denim-1-v7grDY59DyZp The true origins of denim are often debated but can be traced back to the late 1700s in Genoa, Italy, and Nimes, France. It’s thought that the name denim is derived from de Nimes, meaning from ‘from Nimes’, after weavers in Nime attempted to replicate a fabric originally developed in Gênes (the French word of jeans), but ended up with a different cotton twill. A twill we now know as denim.  An accidental development in the French town of Nimes, so you can see where they got their names from!   Jean then went on to become the working-man’s textile in Northern Italy, as depicted in many early 17th century works of art, as it was cheap and durable.

Ideas for Shoot

Image
So I decided that for my photoshoot that I wanted to create material that advertises and brings awareness that socks really have the power to represent who you are as a person. I want the shoot to be very simple and focus mainly on the power that socks can have as an accessory. Styling will be very minimal so that nothing distracts from the socks. I want people to look at it and see that socks can be just as important as maybe a pair of statement earrings or necklace.

I really like the portraits above taken by Shannon Soule, I wanted to create something very similar and simple....
