Well, there's always Neiman Marcus. Cost for this outfit around $800+

They are replaying the midnight presentation right now. The jeans don't resemble this outfit at all. It is TRULY 1980s acidwash, in a bunch of "interesting" colors.

Thanks for the heads up on DG2. This line is supposed to be on TSC next week sometime but I have no idea if the acid wash stuff is coming to Canada or not. Geez, I think I'm officially over this line of jeans because I haven't bought any DG2 jeans in about 3 years. I only buy the tops or jean jackets.

Not to worry. You'll be able to get your acidwash fix in a vest! They showed these acidwashed vests over top of slouchy boyfriend sweaters. It was like a time warp.

Favorite Son,

Will you be getting a new pair of Reebok high tops in a fashion color, or just adding leg warmers to complete the look?

Well, I'd really like to have the whole ensemble and I would complete the look with that shiny banded bottom top from Kathleen Kirkwood.

dooBdoo, thanks for the link. But I'm not wearing those things no matter what. I am a contrarian by nature and don't need any clothes. I guess I'll just have to be out of fashion. The very mention of those things gave me a flashback to an acid-washed flounced mini skirt purchased for me by my ex-husband. And it was during the 1980s. Never going there again.

Remember the ripped jeans?

Acid wash is one thing, but to wear jeans that are literally falling apart, is another.

I agree with Favorite SON…I don't care what that article says I don't see acid wash jeans coming back in a big way and I will not be participating if they do. I'm quite sure acid wash was big in the 80's not the 90's anyway. I went to high school in the 90's and acid wash was well out of fashion.
