Chic Trends: Distressed Denim

Rihanna, Kim Kardashian, Beyoncé

Just like the denim jacket, distressed jeans are “back.” Well, of course they never really left, but as we always say: what’s old is new again. This season, it seems like the more distressed and destroyed, the better.

Our favorite fashionistas have been photographed around the globe embracing the distressed trend. Rihanna, who is definitely a fan, paired her J Brand acid wash jeans with a corset for a day of retail therapy in NYC. Kim Kardashian kept it casual in white Siwy Hannah ripped jeans & a pair of sandals. On a tour stop in Vienna, Beyoncé looked cool & care-free in her rolled-up, J Brand ripped jeans paired with YSL cage shoes.

You can find the distressed look in every color & rinse imaginable. Their most popular fits are the skinny leg and the more relaxed, boyfriend style. Their “distress levels” range from a few rips here and there to being almost completely destroyed.


What say ye? Is tattered, torn, ripped & destroyed… chic?
