The Best Distressed Denim Looks for Daytime and Date Night (2023)

Street chic and on-trend, distressed denim adds a generous cool factor to any outfit. Virtually every style of denim can be distressed, from casual light-washed “mom jeans” to skinny dark-washed styles. Subtle distressing, such as rough, worn spots or frayed pocket edges, works well for casual weekend wear and might even be suitable for casual day at the office. More heavily distressed denim, with deep cuts or extensive fraying, is perfect for an edgy, sexy evening look. Celebrities often rock distressed pieces and we’ve listed their best looks below. We’ve included similar, more affordable options too.
