depends on the colour of the shirt.... if it is black. bleach will NOT turn it white, probably end up brown.
for the worn out part, use a dremel tool and run it along the seams (not to hard, you dont want to go through the fabric completely) you can also use this on the hems of the arms and bottom of the shirt
The faded part may be tricky if it is a dark colour. If it is, try washing it a few days in a row and lay it on a blanket on the grass to dry, the sun should fade it in a few days or so

For the worn out part...
Take out some of the seems so that it is baggy
And then for the faded part(this will make it look vintage)...
Put it out in the sun for a couple days, if it is windy or raining...leave it out there. The sun will absorb some of the color and the wind and rain will mess it up to make it look vintage.

Abuse it. Drive a car over it. Let a dog chew on it. Whip it around in the dirt. ... ... etc. I'm sure you'll get this 'vintage' look you're going for!

Wash with a tiny bit of bleach in the water.
