Alexander Wang’s shredded chain jeans, Knightcat
First you’ll need to get ready: Jeans cut to desired length, craft knife or Xacto scalpel, Jewellery precision pliers, chains of different width, Eyelet set (Pliers, eyelets)
(This is optional, you could shred the bottom of your jeans – or like Wang’s it could be left as it is. Since I cut my long jeans anyway, I shredded the bottom.)
Use the craft blade to slice a section, then scrape down. Putting a cutting board under the jeans helps.
Make some shredded holes further up.
Make a series of eyelet holes near the shredded holes for chains to pass through.
Pass chains through eyelets and hook. Repeat few more times and the same for other leg.

[...] I tend to think of Wang and Wu in the same thought because they are both young NY designers and both on the bullet train to fame. Wang has a cool downtown vibe that I love and this week I noticed this look around town and on various blogs. Chain jeans are easy to replicate if you get cut-off jean shorts or a pair of distressed jeans, puncture, thread chains, wear with tights, and voila. It’s much edgier, less trite than using safety pins—leave that to thirteen year olds. DIY here. [...]
you are a genius.

[...] 1. Kate Moss is a grunge icon, so of course I had to choose something from her clothing line for Topshop. These shredded cutoffs would look fab layered with leggings and a “vintage” Pearl Jam t-shirt. Ripped denim shorts, $55 from Topshop (and if you don’t have $55 to spare, try making your own out of a worn-out pair of jeans… check out this DIY version from Park & Cube). [...]
Hey, I know this is a really old post but hopefully you get this…could you tell me what brand you use for your eyelets and the eyelet tool/setter? I have bought 3 different ones and they do not look as clean as yours. I think I will have to order online but I’m not sure which is best… Thanks, AJ

Oh my, I actually have no idea of the brand – I’ve left all my eyelet tools in London, and now I’m in Warsaw for the summer. All eyelets should do the job right though, I suggest maybe you do exactly as the instructions tell you to, although I’m sure you did… Sorry for being of no help!
