Butt-Ripped Jeans - Right or wrong??

    I know the ripped jeans look has been back in for some time now but today for the first time in town I saw two separate incidences of the gaping-hole-under-the-back-pocket look.

    Those that remember the early to mid-90's will know what I'm talking about I'm sure - a horizontal tear across that back of your jeans that showed all or part of your rosy, or not, bum cheek when you walked, bent over or moved in any way.

    I was a bit shocked at first - partly by the number of disapproving glances both ladies received, but probably moreso that I haven't seen this before now. Maybe it's the fact that most ripped jeans you see on the streets are bought already in their distressed condition and there's no need to "create" the look like in previous times of popularity. I know in my ripped-jeans days I took great care to get them looking as good as possible (and yes, they ALL had holes in the backside!).

    I'm not saying it's a look everyone should aspire too, but in a way if it means that one less person is wearing the exact same pair of distressed jeans that everyone else is wearing, then it should be seen as a positive, if slighty irreverent, look

    Opinions, anyone??

    ^^That was kinda confusing. But, basically, do you mean that you saw jeans with rips across the bum?
    I'm sorry, the 80s revival is cool and all...but erm, a 90s revival?

    Yeah, kinda forget that the ripped jeans thing started in the 80's - my advancing years again! But yeah (butt no, butt yeah) there were holes across the bum of the jeans - big enough for a sizeable draught!

    Euww, no way, it's just too tacky-looking imo. Wear a miniskirt if you want to flash skin!
