Stone Wasted Brainiacs
American Apparel redubs it Mineral Wash but everyone with vague, repressed memories of the late 80s and early 90s will recall it as Acid Wash or Stone Wash. The company even elaborates on the style with simple elegance: "Due to the unique Acid Wash treatment it is typical to see pattern differences as well as shade differences between every style. Because the fabric is degraded in the acid wash process, it is normal to see a few small holes in the garment, and for them to develop more quickly after wash and wear. This is an intentional part of the look and feel of this style." Well, my fashion sense is not wasting anymore of its time dwelling that aberration since I am too distracted by Bubble Gum, Dirty Daffodil, and Electric Blue Skinny Jeans that would cause anorexics to have pot bellies and camel toes.
