Fashion Reveal
Though once judged diabolical , with no rhyme nor reason,
my acts once labeled as commitments of the highest treason,
I have at last been vindicated, judgements now reversed
and I can hold my head up high—an action I’ve rehearsed.
Though once I cowered in my room, at the limits of my sanity,
waiting for the world’s conversion from its rude inanity,
I’m ready to come out again now all the world agrees
that it is cool to wear your jeans when ripped out at the knees.
Shredded around the ankles, slashed along the thighs,
butt cheeks half revealed to any passing viewer’s eyes.
What once I was reviled for, when down on my luck,
is the coolest fashion now that intact Levis suck.
Prompt words for the day are limit, vindicated, room, diabolic, ready and high. Image by Tyler Nix on Unsplash.

I’ll never buy jeans that have been torn. It just makes no sense to me.

Some of these fashion trends baffle me, but whatever floats their boat is fine by me. I remember powdering my hair silver on one side with powdered paint used for heating batteries. And what about dancing on 6″ platforms?

Before this became fashionable, sometime in the early 70s, I sent a Social Worker home to change torn jeans because I considered them disrespectful to clients

It is really ridiculous for people who can afford good clothes to buy them shredded or tear holes in them themselves. An affrontry to those who can’t even afford to clothe themselves.

Who would’ve thought ripped jeans would become a fashion staple? Love how fashion can transform even the most unconventional styles. 🤩
