7 for All Mankind began by designing women's jeans. A men's jeans line was introduced in fall 2002, and its Children Denim Collection for boys and girls in fall 2005. 7 for All Mankind also produces other clothing items such as skirts, shorts, and denim jackets.[citation needed] The brand is sold in over 80 countries including Europe, Canada, and Japan.[2]
History
editDahan and Glasser, denim designers who had worked in the apparel industry for years, created the company in response to what they saw as a void in the contemporary denim market. Focusing on female denim wearers, it has been stated that the company was successful because of the fit, fabrics, washes, attention to detail, and the logo on the product's back pockets.[3] 7 For All Mankind's proximity to Los Angeles makes the brand popular with celebrities,[4] including Prince Harry.[5]
Apparel
edit7 For All Mankind jeans are characteristically tight-fitting and mid-rise.[6]
