Back in the ancient world, where Judaism was founded, it was a sign of mourning during a tragedy to tear your clothes (old English refers to this as "rending the garments." You didn't take them off or tear them to shreds-- you tore a portion, to show publically that you were sad and in extreme grief. Today, at Jewish funerals, many Jews who are mourners will wear a black ribbon which has been torn, a sign of that old custom, and a visible display of sorrow or sadness at the death of a loved one.
Answer:
Halakha (Jewish law) still calls for the tearing of one's shirt at the death of a close relative. This has never changed. It is, of course, done in a way that doesn't compromise modesty.
