To be stylish this summer, you need to choose the right model of shorts. These include:

Shorts-Bermudas

The undisputed favorite of the year. They do not restrain movement, have an acceptable length even for the office and emphasize the waist with a high fit.

Tip: plus-size girls should look out for models with flaps. They correct wide hips and harmonize the proportions of the figure.

To create business looks, choose bermudas made of lightweight suit fabric with arrows. What to wear with? With a classic shirt or vest. In informal urban images, the same shorts are well combined with T-shirts and crop tops.

Ultramini

A bold but capricious style. It is suitable only for owners of slender legs. To enhance the effect, girls with model parameters can complement it with high-heeled shoes. It is important to observe the rule of balance: an open “bottom” requires a closed “top”.

Náklad

Taking over from the trendiest pants of summer-2023, cargo shorts win the hearts of fashionistas with their comfort and practicality. However, the baggy silhouette and roomy pockets can add extra bulk to the hips. To balance the massive “bottom”, you can match them with a silhouetted sweater or top.

Material

Polly Ryzhova: Choose natural, breathable fabrics on hot days. The rating of the most practical and environmentally friendly is headed by linen, which has been a favorite in hot countries since ancient times. Do not forget about cotton, it is already a classic of summer closet. For cooler weather or an obligatory dress code (whether it is office, sporty or festive), look out for shorts made of suit and stretch fabric, leather, blended materials with metallized texture (metallic effect is back in fashion).

Denim

Denim shorts go from season to season. They remain relevant this summer, though with one condition – the right style. Forget about short and tight models. Boldly take elongated. Give preference to models with scuffs and fringes. Do not pass by colored variations of denim.

Čo si obliecť?

In 2023, the main fashion trend is the total look. Boldly choose “on top” denim shirts. For a walk in the park, a successful combination will be a white top with open shoulders with eyelets and denim shorts. Denim looks good with olive shades, so wear it with military-style jackets.
