Give Me Liberty!
Liberty of London is known for, among other things, its floral prints. Levi’s® is known for inventing -- and, then, innovating -- the blue jean. Put the two together and you have a collection that Glamour says could "rock your world."Not bad, eh?

The Groom Wore Blue (Jeans)
As a Levi’s® merchandise coordinator, it’s not often I get to help dress a wedding party, but that’s just what happened to me recently.I was working at Macy’s Oak Court store in Memphis, Tenn., when groom Nick Seccombe and three of his groomsmen approached, looking for wedding wear. They weren’t passing through the Levi’s® section on their way to buy or rent tuxedos. Nick knew exactly what he wanted.

Today, some highlights from LS&Co. Unzipped during the first half of 2012.In January, we called attention to new Dockers® front man Bear Grylls.

"I Didn't Know How Bad My Style Was"
When he left a previous job, a co-worker gave writer Mickey Rapkin a going-away gift -- some new t-shirts. She said, "you can't wear dirty t-shirts anymore."That was the push -- shove? -- that prompted Mickey to finally pay attention to the way he dressed."I didn't know how bad my style was," he admits.Mickey is a guy who has realized that style matters. Dockers® introduces us to six of them in a series of videos, Men of Style.

Levi’s® Vintage Clothing digs deep into the Levi’s® archives to capture and reproduce iconic garments from bygone eras.

Think early 1950s, when the term "biker" became associated with a two-wheeled lifestyle. The fashion? White t-shirt, black leather jacket and the 501® jean.As part of its tribute, Levi’s® Vintage Clothing invited artists and illustrators from around the world to customize black leather motorcycle jackets from its seasonal collection.
