The 3 coolest shorts styles to wear now
Introduce your wardrobe to shorts and you will solve all your summer style dilemmas in one hit.
Smart and tailored shorts are city-appropriate, giving you more ease and freedom than a mini skirt; Bermuda (knee length) are elegant for evening, and crisp cotton boxer styles, in fun poppy shades, are fast becoming a holiday icon.
Here’s how Red Fashion Director Oonagh Brennan styles the summer’s key short trends.
How to style tailored shorts
Short shorts can work for smart occasions if you opt for a camel, black or navy pair with sharp tailored details like pleats and belting. Style them with a striped shirt, leather bag and Chanel's iconic slingback pumps.
How to style Bermuda shorts
This knee-length style is a great evening option but needs heels to look elegant (unless you are very tall of course). Go for a dark denim and style them with a silk or chiffon blouse and extra earrings.
How to style boxer shorts
Boyfriend or boxer shorts are this summer's 'it' style and work perfectly for lowkey lounging and holidays. Give them a feminine edge by styling with a romantic white blouse and ankle-tie espadrilles.
