Selvage and selvedge mean exactly the same thing - different companies spell it differently and there apparently is no "right" way to spell it. It comes from the phrase "self-edge" which refers to the edge being finished by the loom instead of sewn together after weaving. thanks Geowu. Selvage is the term commonly used to refer to denim that has been produced on a shuttle loom. Since the amount of fabric produced from a shuttle loom is significantly narrower than a projectile (wide) loom, the cotton consumption is higher and the time required is greater. In selvage jeans, you will see the actual edge of the fabric where the weaving stops and is finished by the loom, as opposed to denim woven on a projectile loom, where the fabric has been cut off at the ends. The "redline" selvage is Levi's signature and was used in all their jeans up to 1982, before ConeMills nixed them for the more modern projectile looms, which are faster and much more efficient.
A person who is a legend in their own lunchtime...pretends they don't want to be recognised whilst hiding behind oversized sunglasses screaming to be noticed and mistaken for a celebrity...often has to be seen to be buying their lifestyle from all the right shops (the bags are as important if not more so than their contents)...a relentless self-publicist who loudly and self-importantly announces their every earth-shattering move to the world whilst speaking on their mobile...a relentless facebook self-publicist...a person who laps up the increasing blurring or indeed removal of the dividing line between our private and public selves...talent is not necessary any more, just an inordinate focus on what is currently deemed to be the the "right" superficies by the cognoscenti together with a gift for shameless self-promotion...etcetera...
Take a look around next time you're in town...Selfridges is usually a good bet is you wish to spot a selfebrity. If you're bored or annoyed to tears on public transport by a person loudly advertising their immense popularity and important social life while they're talking on their mobile, chances are it's a selfebrity.
