Repairing a hole in jeans

Ah, the eternal holes in our jeans. At one time or another, they seem inevitable.

But should we just admit defeat and throw away our beloved Trousers?

Of course not. Because the fabulous thing about jeans is their endless style.

Fabric patches to repair holes in your jeans

It's certainly the first solution we think of when we want to repair the hole in a pair of jeans. The timeless fabric patch remains and will remain one of our favourite options.

Indeed, very easy to make, it will allow you to repair your jeans and give them a whole new style depending on the fabric or fabrics you choose.

Here you can get creative.

Bear in mind that patches can be placed on the outside as well as the inside, using iron-on.

Enhance holes with jewelled fringes

Spotted in Vogue magazine, beaded and sequin fringes are always ultra-trendy. So rather than hide the holes in your jeans, sublime them!

You can use fringe in all its forms, beads, fabric, ribbon...

At this stage, there won't be any lapse in taste!

Taking inspiration from the great couturiers to repair your jeans

Like Dolce & Gabana or Victor & Rolf, we can imagine stylistic follies, like covering the hole in our jeans with hundreds of buttons!

It's a painstaking job that requires a lot of patience.

If you're not a fan of buttons, you can use pretty pearls, like those from Swarovski, which Tilli is lucky enough to have available!

With the help of one of our Tillists, you'll be able to create something unique.

Think about it!

Fishnet stockings, an ultra-cool alternative for your jeans

They won't repair the holes in your jeans, but they can be great allies in sublimating your look.

Depending on whether your jeans are baggy or slim, net stockings will add a rock'n'roll or sexy touch to your style.

An easy alternative not to be overlooked!

We hope that all these great ideas won't tempt you to deliberately poke holes in your jeans!
But let's face it, personalising your clothes is a great and rewarding activity on all levels.
By the way, still on the subject of jeans, we wrote a great article on the different ways to lengthen the bottom. Take a look, we've got a few nuggets in there.
