A stylish pair of shorts is essential for summer. Among the most trending models for the summer 2024 season are tailored, denim, sporty, and micro shorts. Bermuda shorts have also made a comeback.

With their loose fit and suit-like fabric, Bermuda shorts offer both comfort and elegance. Linen versions are particularly relevant for the summer season.

However, there’s a catch – Bermuda shorts from the 90s, which cover the kneecap, can visually shorten your height. Pay attention to the cut. Opt for high-waisted styles as they elongate the silhouette. It’s best to choose loose-fitting shorts to create a balance with a more fitted top.

Prada suggests pairing Bermuda shorts with a bandeau top, Loewe with polo shirts, and Dior with feminine blouses.

Footwear plays an important role: heels are the best option for elongating the silhouette, while ballet flats or Mary Jane shoes are the most comfortable. It’s better to set aside bulky shoes for other outfits.
