For over 20 years, Code Bleu® has been creating stylish, comfortable denim clothing for modern women. Our brand was founded in 2003 in Los Angeles, California with a vision to make denim fashionable again. We’re proud to offer innovative denim that combines trend-driven design, flattering fit, and excellent quality.
Our Denim Roots
Denim runs through our veins here at Code Bleu. Our founders were denim industry veterans who saw an opportunity to reimagine classic denim styles with a fresh, fashion-forward aesthetic.
In the early 2000s, denim was viewed as casual wear relegated to weekends and errands. Most options available were basic blues and bootcut silhouettes better suited for workwear than runway. Code Bleu’s founders envisioned a new take on denim that seamlessly blended style and comfort for the modern woman’s lifestyle.
Armed with intimate knowledge of denim construction and the latest industry innovations, our team got to work creating a line of jeans and jackets that fused relevant trends with wearable designs. The first Code Bleu collection debuted in 2003 offering fashion denim in contemporary fits like skinny, trouser, and boyfriend. This new breed of denim took off, and Code Bleu quickly earned a reputation as an innovator shaking up the denim scene.
What Makes Code Bleu Denim Special
There are a few key factors that set Code Bleu denim apart:
Innovative Fabrics
We stay on the cutting edge of denim technology to incorporate the latest high-performance fabrics into our jeans and jackets. Code Bleu denim features exclusive blends with stretch, sculpting properties, and recovery for an amazing fit that moves with you. The addition of spandex and other technical fibers gives our denim enhanced comfort without sacrificing structure and shape retention. Our fabric development team is constantly researching and testing to find the most innovative textiles to improve the fit, feel, and wearability of our denim.
On-Trend Styling
Our talented Los Angeles-based design team has their finger on the pulse of what’s hot in fashion. Code Bleu denim takes inspiration from the season’s most covetable runway and street style looks, then translates them into wearable pieces. You’ll find of-the-moment details like released hems, distressed effects, ankle crops, button accents, and unique washes across our collections. We balance trendy touches with flattering silhouettes so you look stylish – not costumey.
Premium Construction
From the quality of the denim fabric to the stitching and hardware, Code Bleu uses premium components to create durable, long-lasting pieces. Our jeans and jackets are made to fit and feel great wear after wear thanks to reinforced stress points, shape retention, and fade resistance. We also ensure our eco-friendly wash techniques give each piece a perfect, lived-in look without compromising the integrity of the denim. The result is a luxe level of quality you can feel in every Code Bleu design.
Flattering Fit
Finding the perfect pair of jeans isn’t just about the right size – it’s about the right cut. Code Bleu’s fit experts obsess over every curve, proportion, and angle to create denim that accentuates your best assets. Our collections offer a range of flattering fits designed to balance comfort with a body-contouring, leg-lengthening silhouette. Details like contoured waistbands, rear lift design, and strategic seaming and pockets create a polished, put-together look. Our denim fits and flatters so you always look and feel your best.
Our Design Ethos
Modern, Polished Aesthetic
We design every style to align with our signature modern, polished aesthetic. Code Bleu denim has an elevated yet relaxed vibe perfect for everything from daytime outings to nightlife. Clean finishes, minimal distressing, and laid-back details give our pieces a refined edge. Our color palette focuses on versatile medium to dark washes along with modern neutrals and pops of color in seasonal pieces. The resulting look is both contemporary and timeless.
Wearable, Lifestyle-Driven Design
Today’s woman lives a busy, multifaceted life, and her wardrobe needs to work as hard as she does. We design our pieces to seamlessly transition from workdays to weekends and everywhere in between. Styling details lend our jeans and jackets functionality and versatility to go from desk to dinner and beyond. You’ll also find perfected proportions to flatter and fit your shape during every activity. Code Bleu denim works for your lifestyle, not the other way around.
Elevated Basics
Every modern woman needs her staple denim pieces, so we focus on reimagining those basics in fresh ways. Our collections feature elevated versions of must-have jeans, jackets, shorts, and more to become the cornerstone of your wardrobe. We build upon classic five-pocket jeans and trucker jackets with updated fabrications, modern silhouettes, and refined accents. The result provides the familiarity you want with sophisticated style you can wear for seasons to come. Consider our denim your trusty basics – reinvented.
Effortless Pairing Potential
The mark of great denim is its ability to pair effortlessly with everything else in your closet. Code Bleu designs are meant to complement the other pieces in your wardrobe for easy outfit creation. Our versatile washes, universal silhouettes, and neutral hues make pairing a breeze. Dress up our jeans with heels and blazers or relax the look with tees and sneakers. Top off dresses and skirts with our jackets for the perfect finish. We create denim that works in harmony with the rest of your clothes.
Our Commitment to Quality
At Code Bleu, we stand behind the quality of our denim. Our dedication starts with sourcing the best fabrics from top mills around the world to ensure superior performance. We use innovative techniques like dual-core yarns and patented stretch technologies to create durable, shape-retaining denim.
Our in-house team oversees our exacting standards for construction and finishing. Stitched seams, reinforced belt loops, rivets at stress points – every detail is meticulously crafted for longevity. Our eco-friendly washes are specially developed to break in the fabric and achieve that perfect faded look without compromising the integrity of the denim.
We also test our denim throughout the design process against industry standards for quality. From fabric tensile strength to washfastness and more, our pieces undergo rigorous assessment to guarantee they can withstand real-life wear.
When you buy Code Bleu, you’re investing in denim built to last. If any manufacturing issues arise, just contact our customer service team for assistance. We stand 100% behind our products and your satisfaction.
