The denim can be painted with all kinds of fun designs. They can be put on the leg, outside on the seam edge and smaller designs that fit on the back pockets.
Painting is only one way artist recreate the look of jeans and t-shirts. Many are hitting up crafts stores and are using fabrics, embroidery using fancy beads and multi color threads. These designs can take a casual pair of jeans and transform them into pants ready for the nightlife. Some are even designing looks using layered fabric to give texture and dimension not found in an ordinary pair of jeans.
