#DenimMonth I cannot say enough how much I love distressed denim! These
denims are just the best and give you that cool fashionable vibe that you need
sometimes. A bit about distressed denim. Distressed denim emerged from the
cultural punk movement in the 1970s. Early punks tore apart consumer goods as
an expression of their anger towards society.
Johnny Rotten of the Sex Pistols manifested the British punk ideology,
which was fighting against the status quo and Margaret Thatcher’s rigid
conservative government. Denim became a key target of this politically fueled
deconstruction, with both men and women donning torn pants and jackets,
accessorized with safety pins and slogans. The trend became popular again in
the 1990s with the emergence of grunge fashion. If punk was “anti-fashion”,
grunge was “non-fashion”. The grunge youth wore loose-fitting ripped jeans,
flannel shirts or woolen Pendletons layered over T-shirts. Their
anti-conformist approach to fashion led to the popularization of the casual
chic look, a trend which continued into the 2000s. Distressed denim still rocks
and they can be worn by every woman who considers herself as fashion forward.
