Inspired by the roaring 1920s of Prohibition and the coquettish elegance of Hollywood icons such as Rita Hayworth, Marlene Dietrich and Gina Lollabrigida, 18th Amendment has arrived as a celebrated alternative in a market dominated by the standard low rise skinny fit. Leading international buyers have rushed to snap up their diverse styles, quality detailing and dedication to achieving the perfect fitting jean and have made 18th Amendment jeans a must-have for denim aficionados the world over.  The jeans are instantly recognisable with an art-deco wing logo, inspired by the Rolls Royce “Flying Lady” epitomising 18th Amendment’s high quality design approach and feminine vintage style.  ”18th Amendment is a blend of modern and vintage fit, finishing and detailing. The Brand ended in 2009 after the Global Financial Crisis which badly affected retail in their leading UK & US markets.
