About DENEM
Denem, the Los Angeles-based denim brand by designer Emily Starobrat, redefines the art of denim with an intentional approach to craftsmanship. Known for its signature artisanal pieces, the collection is distinguished by intricate, hand-carved drawings etched into the fabric—a true fusion of art and fashion. Inspired by the boundless versatility of denim, Starobrat reimagines its surface with bold textile treatments, reworked vintage details, and innovative textures that push the boundaries of convention. While embracing these avant-garde techniques, Denem stays true to the timeless appeal of the classic five-pocket jean, offering an elevated yet wearable take on denim that feels both familiar and fresh.
