Bollywood celebrities are all getting ripped (jeans)
Steal their style with these budget-friendly versions
This fashion trend is what pre-teen dreams and nani’s nightmares are made of – “Arrey phati hui pant pehenke bahar kyun jaa rahi hai?”
Ripped jeans are back, and despite the collective disapproval of all the colony wali aunties, we couldn’t be happier. Our denims can finally reflect our perpetual states of being – distressed. Plus, with summer approaching, we will be grateful for that extra breathing space.
Ripped jeans, unlike the 7,893 fashion trends on the internet, never disappoint.
They are budget-friendly — just take a scissor to your old pair as a fun DIY project. They are versatile — paired with a tank top, they’re as close as you will get to being in your pjs, and with heels and a pretty blouse, you’re ready for date night.
Bollywood seems to agree.
Nani thinks ripped jeans are for delinquents and klutzes (cause you snagged them on a desk corner) — but paired with a pretty blouse and sky-high heels, à la Janhvi Kapoor, even she won’t be able to disapprove of your outfit.
Take a page out of Kapoor’s book, and you can get away with wearing them to a work commitment, date night or even drinks with the girls.
A relaxed top, nude heels and your trusted ripped jeans are all you need to recreate Shraddha Kapoor’s easy-breezy-look — on lunch dates, and even to work. Perfect for days when you want to look presentable but don’t feel like shaving your legs.

Sunny Leone makes a case for ripped jeans on an outing with her kids, keeping it simple with a loose, long sleeved blouse.
If you thought distressed was only for your state of mind as you balanced school runs with work meetings and errands, think again.
