Denim is like blood-- you need it to survive. One of my ultimate favorite denim jean brands, Tripp NYC, has just released their summer collection, now available at
Karmaloop.com. Conceived on the streets of the East Village in the early 80s, Daang Goodman, founder and designer of the label, has drawn inspiration from underground rock n' roll scene, fusing it with downtown NYC street style. Tripp NYC has stayed true to its rock n' roll roots, dressing today's top musicians and artists. The brand is looked to for emerging trends on the pages of Vogue, Interview and Nylon. Tripp NYC produces the hottest colors and cuts for all their denim jeans, featuring rip, stud, zipper and splatter details. My most coveted pairs are
The Tear Me Down Ripped Jean, web-exclusive to Karmaloop.com, and
The In Distress Black Splattered Ripped Jean, a grunge flashback to the early 90s, seen on
Agyness Deyn. Also check out my other top picks:
The Spilt Personality Jeans,
The Stud Jeans and
The Double Zip Jeans in Turquoise.
