(4.33 out of 5)“What Price Do You Want To Pay For Fall Fashion?” Metallic Jeans Part 2 Series #2
October 20th, 2007 by markdownmomIt would only seem a natural progression of the "bling" look from gem embellished jeans to metallic or metallic washed jeans. The idea is great when we think of the success and look of metallic leather of the last few seasons. However, it seems that there is some debate as to the fit of jeans infused with the 
metallic color and the look you want to achieve. Most of the metallic fabric jeans currently on the market fall into two categories: subtle or glaring. So, the consumer must decide what part of her personality she wants to bring out with this fashion statement. Both have equal standing as part of the fashion world trends. MDM reviewed several offerings of the look:
Metrostyle™ has these Back Belt Metallic stretch jeans in gold and silver for $34.99, misses sizes only 6-20.
HSN, Diane Gilman, DG2, has several jeans in bronze, silver and gold–although the gold and silver may be over the top with the side seam embellishments. Prices run from $69.90-$76.90, with 3 flex pays. DG2 does offer these jeans in all sizes, but first sho
wing sold out, so you may have to order on waitlist or wait for the second go around.
Nordstrom’s Joe’s Jeans ‘Honey’ metallic stretch jeans come in bronze metallic and navy metallic, sizes 0-12, $174.00. These are subtler than counterparts made with Lurex®.
Treated with a metallic sheen, this rich and sleeky pair of jeans offered by Shopbop.com. with sought after skinny leg and look of distressed jeans with a silver metallic sheen, sizes up to 12, for $216.00 + free ground shipping.

Hi I am looking for metallic washed jeans for a new year’s party. I can not find them anywhere. I did find some in our local Stein Mart, but of course they did not have my size. I thought searching the net would result in something, but no luck. Thanks Kimberly
Kimberly; Thanks for writing. Without knowing your size, besides the ones listed in the post, you may want to check out a copper key metallic pant in black at Dillards, Fashion Bug has gold thread pant, but for real glitz try Spiegel and their sister site NewPort News Catalog carrying leather metallic pants and even gauchos. Hope this helps. Markdown Mom
