Although reminiscent of punk, safety pins, spiky hair and The Sex Pistols, the ripped jeans look is a brilliantly cool look to bust out when you are in a Gothic mood. Perhaps after spending a week with your folks over Christmas?
These ripped jeans were spotted on the runway of Maison Martin Margiela, and the ripped jeans with colored tights underneath is from Norwegian high street store Bik Bok. I like the way you can play with the combination of colored tights or leggings.
This is also a perfect DIY fashion trend. Grab a pair of scissors and an old pair of jeans, and you're free to tear and rip to your heart's content.
