Levi's unveils 'waterless' jeans for spring
Bangalore, March 22 Coinciding with the World Water Day, global apparel brand Levi's Strauss & Co Thursday unveiled its 'waterless' jeans collection for this year's spring season.

"We have reduced water consumption in the finishing process by reducing the number of washing machine cycles, incorporating ozone processing into garment washing and removing water from stone wash," Levi's vice-president for global merchandising and design Erik Joule said in a statement here.

The US jeans major has teamed up with Water.org to raise awareness for conserving water and make it accessible to a billion people who don't get clean drinking water the world over.

"An average pair of jeans uses 42 litres of water in the finishing process. We have reduced the use of water in the waterless jeans by 96 percent. As a result, we were able to save 172 million litres of water for producing 13 million jeans pairs," Joule said.

"Always go for resort wardrobe made with intelligent fabrics that are non-fussy, easy to maintain and extremely durable for a holiday, whether you're on land or sea," Narresh of designer duo Shivan-Narresh, known for the resort wear line, told IANS.

"Don't try to go overboard with your oomph quotient while holidaying and opt for breezy silhouettes. Go for bright colours that cut strategically on the body," he added.

Shivan said: "A swimsuit, sarong, trapeze linen shirt and the bikini sari are perfect whether you are spending your time on a beach or in a bar."

Cruise wear got prominence on the ramp at the last edition of the Lakme Fashion Week when models hit the ramp in outfits with tribal and digital prints, bohemian style jumpsuits, rompers and short dresses with multiple buttons.

Designer Jatin Varma says the kaftan and sarong may be a must-have for girls who don't want to experiment with their looks, but one can add spark to looks by styling with funky accessories like chunky neckpieces, elegant hats, chic hairbands, scarves and metallic chappals. There are options aplenty.

Tech, SMS dividing generations at workplace: Body language guru

The psychological gap between the Facebook generation of young employees and their baby booming boss is widening in the age of electronics, says Australian body language guru Allan Pease, who has co-authored 15 bestsellers with wife Barbara.

"What happens is most of the Generation Y employees at workplaces are under 32. They are the techno-savvy Facebook generation who know more than their parents. Their bosses are baby boomers - 45 and above. That has created different perceptions of the world between the older generation and young workers," Pease told IANS in the capital.

Body language tips for young executives (To go with 'Tech, SMS dividing generations at workplace')

Here are five body language tips for the young executive by grooming guru Allan Pease:

1. Always carry a briefcase or laptop to one side when you go for an interview or meeting, preferably in your left hand so that you can shake hands with the right.

3. Never overfill your briefcase or folder.

4. Avoid talking for long periods and never shake hands across the desk.

5. Angle your chair or body 45 degrees away from the interview.
