What To Do With Torn Clothes

Do you have shirts or pants with rips or holes in it? Well here's an easy solution: Rip it more! This look was inspired by my roommate Jessica (also a fashion design major at FIDM) who had a pair of leggings and a shirt will holes in it and ripped it up more to make an exciting new look.


The best way to rip your clothes to make it look intentional and fashionable is to rip it in areas. Do not over  rip up a piece of clothing, it will look like your dog tried to eat it. As shown in Jess's shirt, she decided to make small holes near the hem and at the shoulder.




I love how she paired it with the combat boots, makes it look casual, cool, and trendy.

Another way to wear this look is to layer things under the holes. Try wearing lace tights under holy jeans or leggings. Or wear a patterned shirt under a hole-y shirt. The possibilities are endless!

  1. not gonna lie, this is probably one of the trashiest looks ever. a few holes are okay but when they look that intentional and that many, well thats just trashy.

  3. not gonna lie, funk settle down. im not a big fan of completely holey clothes, but if you were to wear each of them separately with non-ripped jeans or a non-ripped shirt then i think it could definitely be pulled off.

  4. Talleywho is right, I merely presented the option of ripping up your clothes. My model did not actually wear these pieces together in public. It was just for the photo.
