I am on the lookout for great denims, and I just found this one, made in France-- a more lightweight, more dressy, black denim with lots of 2-way stretch and great recovery, soft and light with a crisp drape, perfect for any season. Make fitted skirt, pants, jacket, dress. Fantastic quality, very upscale, has a more solid color look rather than a more "heathery" denim. Pre-wash in cold water, hang to dry.
