Chino is a Spanish word. The term chinos, synonymous with khakis. These are cotton pants and were initially used as military uniforms in US and UK, imported from China. The fabric used in it was durable, very light and suitable for warm conditions.

  It was in 19th century khaki colour was famous and well accepted in US as it blended with the sand colour. Soon it became the staple for militants. As military uniforms they were straight fit, no pleats, tapered towards the bottom with buttons in front.
In 20th century American began to wear chinos, for semi-informal gatherings. Boys wore them to schools and colleges. By  1940s   it became associated with the preppy look. It was in 1950s chino banged up the market. The decline came by 1960 when jeans were preferred and more of casual style dressing took up the market. Still people did not stop wearing chino, though it became rare. Today its back in vogue, in a more stylized form worn informally. With brighter colours , pleats and other small detailing both for men and women. It need not be in 100% cotton, it has a little more of blended fabric for latest styling and fabric is not compulsorily from china. Basically it’s only the style as imitative of military uniform, rest all is modified.

The denim jackets are here once again. It’s after a break from the leather jackets in trend last season that denims come back in style. Thought this time 80s fashion is going to come back in a more stylized way. Earlier where denim jackets were worn in a more formal look, with jeans and fitted skirts for women.
Today it goes more casual.. Put on your jacket with rolled up sleeves for more funky look, you can even club it with a plain loose dress, shorts or wear it in shirt style. Torn effect is in vogue with a lot of washes on the jackets. Today even shrugs/ short coats are coming in denim, with a lot of light prints over them. They look so cute and summery.
We should also appreciate the designers for playing a vital role in booming the denim industry. Where denims were worn in slight cold weather earlier, today people are wearing it at any point of time, summer or winter does not make much difference. The fabric being used today is so refined that it does not make us feel hot. The prints over it and the styles available tempt us to wear it. After all whatever we say jackets always give a stylish look, if clubbed properly as the whole attire.
