Promoters Say THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK — Sickof exercise, butstill seeking buns of steel? A new butt-boosting pair of jeans promises to make yourderriere look delightful without one sweaty minute of aerobics. The $40 MiracleBoost jeans for women were unveiled Thursday in New York, with the inventors hoping to do for the backside what the cleavageenhancing Wonderbradid for breasts. “This is the answer to many women’s dreams,” said Michelyn Camen, executive vice president of Sun Apparel Inc. Why? Simply by pulling on the MiracleBoost, your behind will become “rounder, better,” she promised. A special design, combined with a Spandex material, lifts the bottom up an inch. To the touch, the jeans still feel like an ordinary pair of panis. To show off the new product, twin blondesin high heels stood side by side, modeling an ordinary pair of jeans and the MiracleBoostjeans. The twin in the “wonderbutt” jeans looked . . . rounder, better. Claire Tassone, director of merchandising, complained that many jeans flatten and widen women’s bottoms. The MiracleBoost, in contrast, will make jeans-wearing an “uplifting experience,” she said. Sun Apparelis predicting more than $20 million in sales in the first year after the jeans go on the market in July. Overall U.S. sales of jeanshit $6.2 billion last year, up slightly from the year before. Macy’s East already has ordered 20,000 pairs of MiracleBoostjeans. “Oh, great.
