Them There's Gold In Those Jeans! Real Gold Infused Denim From Hugo Boss.

The high-end label of German-based brand Hugo Boss, Boss Selection, has created limited edition jeans for women that have actual gold plated threading woven into the denim as details. The luxurious gold-plated fibers have been treated with a laminate so that they maintain their strength after multiple washes.
