How do you make a rock star costume from your clothes?

Answer 1

The easiest way is to go very 80s rock band.

Find an old pair of jeans. Scrape some holes in the knees, thighs, wherever. You could use a rough edge such as on a grater to make the holes look more worn rather than neatly cut. The key is to get those little white strings around the edge of the holes to look frayed, like the holes got there because your jeans are so well worn out.

Find a black top. You could also use a deep red one. Or mix pink and black together. Boys can cut off the sleeves of the t-shirt, like many did in the 80s. Girls can strategically make cuts elsewhere on a t-shirt. You can cut upwards on the sleeves or bodice to make what look like "strings" of fabric hanging down from the woven parts.
