Jeans--a popular staple of a girl’s wardrobe in its many avatars.
Dressing up for casual outings or styling it up for hot date nights, girls keep the comfy denims just oh-so-hot and versatile. It is hard for fashionistas to stay away from street styled tattered denims, short skirts and a pair of ‘Boyfriend’ jeans during red carpets, movie premieres and high-profile appearances. The age-old styles of jeans are given a modern twist to make them look fresh, cool and an ultimate style statement. Let’s see how one of the most popular staples of a girl’s wardrobe gets an instant revamp.
‘Boyfriend’ jeans
From the time Kareena Kapoor ransacked hubby Saif Ali Khan’s wardrobe and Alia Bhatt borrowed Ranbeer Kapoor’s jeans, getting into boyfriend’s jeans has become quite a rage. Yes, the B-town babes have been making news for wearing their ‘Boyfriend’ jeans in style.
The trend - ‘Boyfriend jeans’ is a big hit with young girls and actresses in India and quite a rage in the West too. The key to wearing this look is not to actually wear your boyfriend’s jeans but to get the ones that are available in the stores, which fit well and don’t look slouchy. The pair is tight around the waist but relaxed at the bottom. Young girls like the fashion formula of wearing guys' jeans which are loose and not skin tight. One can leave the baggie end flared or roll it up into a capri.
Skinny denims
Super-tight versions of denim pants were worn by the likes of Janhvi Kapoor and Jacqueline Fernandes that helped kick off the skinny jean trend. Almost a second skin to Bollywood babes now, the ultra-tight or peg-leg jeans make for a brave fashion statement. The skin-tight jeans are a risky bet but a popular fashion fad and passion of youths and tinsel divas. The low-waist denim snugly fits the body, accentuating the lean legs! These body hugging numbers are a strict no no if you need to sit for long hours or do some extremely rigorous activities like running or stretching.
Tattered trend
There is something sexy and raw about the destroyed or the ripped jeans, especially when the A-listers carry it the right way. Hollywood hotties like Julia Roberts and Meg Ryan have set benchmarks when it comes to some street-style fashion statement. Worn and torn in the right places, the fad of ripped jeans has climbed up its way to Bollywood as well. A torn pair adds wonders to popular style icons such as Kriti Sanon, Disha Patni and Priyanka. They consider ripped jeans to be their signature look that gives them comfort, fun and spunk. Young fashionistas are going over the top when it comes to the ‘destructed’ style. Just a pair of scissors and a courage to rip it apart; the teens are achieving the style right inside their homes. And ironically you end up paying a lot more at the stores for a frayed pair than a normal pair of jeans.
Teeny-weeny numbers
Denim never dies and keeps updating itself at intervals. Fashion of the 80s, tiny denim skirts and shorts is ultra-cool, and a boon for women with lanky legs. They are easy, they go with everything, and perfect to wear when it gets hot outside. Short skirts worn by Bollywood divas are fun and add a lot of character to their catwalks and glam events. A flared skirt or tight shorts, denim has a lot of versatility. With cool colours and varying lengths, hot numbers can be perfect for spring and fall.
