Ripped Clothing fashion in Pakistan
“Clothes are never a frivolity: they always
Mean
something”
(James laver)
There was a time when we usually throw
away those clothes which were ripped, torn up and we didn’t feel comfortable
with it even for just a two minutes’ walk, or if we had seen someone whose
clothes were damaged, we would have felt sorry for him believing He is
extremely poor. But now a days people pay handsome money to buy damaged pants
of different brands and feel absolute comfort, not only they use it randomly
but also wear it in parties, functions and other events.
Ripped cloths fashion arised in 1970s in
western countries. These were also known
as distressed Cloths and it became very popular fashion in Pakistan at the
start of 2010’s , and still has popular fan base among new generation . Most of
The people who wear this type of stuff are youngster, teenagers who are
inspired by their favorite Personalities such as film/drama Actors, Singers,
sports athletes and other super stars. The companies manufacturing damaged pants
are earning huge amounts; few of them are mentioned Such as Levi’s, Wrangler, Lee
jeans, Armani jeans, Calvin Klein. These pants are sold at different prices
starting from 1K to 20k, depending upon the quality of jeans.
The Shopkeepers seemed to be very
satisfied with trend of ripped cloths; they said the demand of our sale has
increased a lot in last few years, Whereas we had mixed reactions in general
public about this fashion. Youngsters said that trends like these are demand of
time and we need to move along with time while Aged people looked very
disappointed with how obscenity has raised in the name of modernization.
I had a chat with few parents about it
and they clearly Looked disappointed over what their children are using in the
name of fashion. They said that their children are wasting our money on these
strange types of dresses, whenever we try to refrain them from wearing this
kind of stuff; they always argue that we are having old School thinking, which
doesn’t count in this modern world.
I met a university student and he told
me a very interesting story about him that one day I was Going to university on my bike I
had an accident as a result of that I fell down on the road, I was injured and
my pant was damaged and it had a big hole on my left knee role, for a minute I
thought this pant is of no use now but then I realized that i Should tear my
pant from my right knee roll also so that I can use this pant as a fashion. Still
I am using that pant and nobody has any idea that it is deliberately damaged.
Cultural and traditional norms mean a
lot to a society. Clothes are one of the very few Basic things that a society
or culture is recognized with. These types of trends are pushing new generation
to western culture and making theme to ignore their own traditions and culture.
Our traditional and Cultural dresses have been limited to only specific days,
such as Eid days and marriage ceremonies. And there is a small number of those
who do not wear these cultural dresses even on these special occasions rather
use jeans and other fabrics.
Modernization is not a bad thing at all,
there should be a Balance between all the aspects, one should not leave aside
their Cultural and traditional dresses and become a complete follower of
western region and not even vice versa. We can still live a life while being
modern and not have to compromise on our Cultural and traditional norms. It is
just about creating a line where all the things remain in their specific
limits.

[DAMAGED
PANTS FASHION IN PAKISTAN]

starting from 1K to 20k, depending upon the quality of jeans; cheaper pants
have a higher demand than that of costlier one’s. People of all class wear
these pants be it rich poor or middle class ones
“CLOTHES ARE NEVER A FREVOLITY: THEY ALWAYS
MEAN SOMETHING” [do not capitalise all words]
(JAMES LAVER)
Most of The people who wear this type of stuff
are youngster, teenagers who are inspired by their favorite Personalities such
as film/drama Actors, Singers, sports athletes and other super stars. This
trend stared long ago in western countries but it has recently arised in this
country. As a result of this rapidly Spreading trend of damaged pants our new
generation is losing interest towards our cultural and local dresses. Although
the trend of damaged pants is very famous amongst youngster’s, it is disliked
by older people, I had a chat with few parents about it and they clearly
expresses their disappointment over what their children are using in the name
of fashion. They said that their children are wasting our money on these
strange types of dresses, whenever we try to refrain them from wearing this
kind of stuff; they always argue that we are having old School thinking, which
doesn’t count in this modern world.
One incident that comes to my mind is that, one
day I was traveling to university on my bike I had an accident as a result of
that I fell down on the road, I was injured and my pant was damaged and it had
a big whole on my left knee role, for a minute I thought this pant is of no use
now but then I realized that i Should tear my pant from my right knee roll also
so that I can use this pant as a fashion. And still I am using that pant and
nobody has any idea that it is deliberately damaged.
We live in a society in which Cultural and
traditional norms mean a lot to us.
Clothes are one of the very few Basic things that a society or culture
is recognized with. These types of trends are pushing our new generation to
western culture and making theme to ignore their own traditions and culture.
Our traditional and Cultural dresses have been limited to only specific days,
such as Eid days and marriage ceremonies. And there is a small number of those
who do not wear these cultural dresses even on these special occasions rather
use jeans and other fabrics.
In my personal opinion I always think that
modernization is not a bad thing at all, there should be a Balance between all
the aspects, one should not leave aside their Cultural and traditional dresses
and become a complete follower of western region and not even vice versa. We
can still live a life while being modern and not have to compromise on our
Cultural and traditional norms. It is just about creating a line where all the
things remain in their specific limits.
