Leaky jeans at one time personified the spirit of rebellion and opposition to the values promoted by the consumer society. Then the shabby denim just fell in love with the representatives of many youth subcultures.
Leaving into the background, but all the time returning into the view of the mods again, jeans with holes continually changed the reasons for their “Kam backs.” At some point, for example, resourceful needlewomen decided to make their own stylish scuffs and cuts on old jeans, which were a pity to throw out. So the thing gained a second life.
Returning to all the fashion collections a couple of years ago, jeans with holes now carry a new symbolism.
They personify simplicity in everything, freedom of choice, serenity of life and youth of the spirit.
Features
Today, fashion is not just a hole in jeans, and such scuffs that can not be obtained without difficulty. If you have a cracked leg in the knee area, you cannot leave everything as it is and just wear these jeans further. We'll have to sweat a lot to create a trend item of clothing out of an unintentional misstep. But this is good news for those who love their old worn jeans and don’t want to part with them.
If earlier, behind a torn jeans train, there was a clear symbolism (rebellion, protest), but today it is just a fashionable element and nothing more. That is why all the creators of world fashion seek to find a place for them in their collections. And it does not matter - summer or winter.
Holes of all possible sizes, scuffs and intentionally grubby patches - all this is mixed up with decorative seams, chains and rhinestones today eminent couturiers. And such things cost a lot, although they can be created independently!
Before trying on the role of a fashion designer, read our recommendations. Strange as it may sound, but in creating sloppy ripped jeans, consistency and compliance with certain rules is important.
Where are the holes located and is their size limited?
To create a truly fashionable, and not absurd thing, holes and scuffs should be done exclusively in the area of the legs. In the hip area (both front and back) and on the buttocks, these elements are unacceptable and inappropriate. The exception is the rear pockets.
Choosing the size of fashionable holes also requires a delicate approach.. First, it depends on the specific location of the trend element. Any hole during wear is gradually increasing. On the knee, for example, a slot of almost any diameter looks beautiful. But everything below the knee, looks spectacular in a miniature version.
Secondly, the number of holes and scuffs matters, how close they are. If you plan to create an ensemble of several holes, it is better to make them small, and the distance between them is significant. This will help to avoid the fact that one day this composition will turn into one continuous hole.
All of the above relates to artificially battered and aged holes on jeans. If you plan to carefully cut one or more pieces of fabric from your denim trousers and do not razlohmachivat them until the fringe, the cuts may well have impressive dimensions, while the distance between them is allowed from 2 cm.
Is the brand hole different from the usual?
A certain category of fashionistas is definitely ready to lay out a tidy sum for jeans, artificially aged by renowned designers. And that is their right. But there are no such fashionable scuffs, cuts or holes on jeans that you could not make yourself at home. On the contrary, the work on aging denim trousers is a purely manual matter. There are no secret factory tricks that would surpass your own efforts to create this stylish thing.
Moreover, in order to somehow justify the crazy prices for their torn jeans, some stylists tend to decorate them with rhinestones and other decorative elements that are probably out of place in such a thing.
Let torn jeans are no longer a symbol of freedom and rebellion, but excessive decoration still does not "fit" them. Holes should be the main "chip" of such a thing. Although, of course, lovers of glamor have the right to add rhinestones or sequins to them.
It is not without reason that eclecticism has long been predominant in modern fashion — so unpretentious and democratic.
Models and styles
This season will be relevant absolutely any styles and models of ripped jeans.. There is only one rule for choosing - they should sit perfectly on you. Owners of slender legs can opt for a skinny with a lot of scuffs and scratches. Today, the most fashionable will be jeans, which cut up to 50% of the surface. Such tests stand out well and straight pants, as well as the model "boyfriends."
Light or medium bell - option for girls with wide hips. This style helps to balance the silhouette of the figure. But for claws, one might say, it is worthwhile to introduce a limit on the number of scuffs. They should be much smaller than the models described above. Also for flared jeans, the cut in the knee area is not allowed as big as for skinny or straight trousers.
Pants, bananas, speckled with scuffs and holes, will look stylish and relevant this season. Like greetings from the past: popular in the 80s-90s, these jeans seemed to have been found by you on the mezzanine and preserved the story of how your mother used to wear them. Complement the stylish image of small gateways.

Tips for choosing
Although ripped jeans are a very versatile thing, we still want to advise you to adhere to some criteria that will help you find the perfect model for you..
• Women who have a figure with full hips, it is better to opt for jeans straight cut. At the same time, the holes and cuts here should be vertical - this will stretch the silhouette of the figure and visually add you a couple of centimeters of growth. At the same time there should not be too many holes. Their maximum concentration here should be 10-20 cm above the knee.
• The owners of the perfect figure fit jeans of any style with any number of holes and scuffs. The most piquant and tempting here will look cuts on the knees and in the lower thighs.
• Low girls with pumped calves should not wear jeans that have slots below the knee.Choose models with holes in the upper part of the leg, and styles that freely sit on the calf. Here careless turn-outs will be very appropriate.
What to wear?
We offer you a few stylish combinations for any season.
• Blouse or shirt. Such an ensemble will create a balanced image between a rough bottom and a romantic top. Shirt or blouse must be tucked into his pants. Stylish belt - optional.
• Leather jacket. Combination option for a cool summer evening or autumn / spring. Under the jacket you can wear a shirt, top, turtleneck. Shoes to complete this outfit are court shoes, rough shoes, or thick sandals. You can pick up here and sneakers or sneakers, but it will be a more boring option.
• Coat. Another autumn-spring option is ripped jeans with a knee-length coat. From shoes, shoe boots are ideal here - on a heel or a flat sole, as well as any closed shoes and half boots.
• Blazer. Option for fans of contrasts. The subject of a strict office style effectively looks paired with shabby jeans. A jacket in such an ensemble should be necessarily short (up to the upper line of the hips or even higher). But in matters of the color palette for a jacket with such a suit there are no restrictions - it can be from any scale or even with prints. Shoes - boats or ankle boots.
• Cloak. This type of free-form outerwear and knee-length is a great companion for ripped jeans. Again, the perfect finishing touch is the pumps. Both closed and open toe are allowed.
- Sweatshirt, pullover. This soft and comfortable piece of clothing matches perfectly with any jeans. And with trendy ragged denim trousers, you can create a mass of stylish ensembles. Perfect for cool weather. If you choose a sweatshirt with a print, the shoes may be coarser and more colorful. Under a monochrome pullover, it is better to put on elegant shoes.
- Mike, top. In the midst of a hot summer minimalism is relevant. Both t-shirts of any styles, and crop-tops that are especially relevant now, are equally well-suited to ripped jeans. Sandals, pointy ballet flats or sneakers will complete such an ensemble.
