The bermuda shorts have established themselves as the trend that dominated European summer and are preparing to land in Argentina. Discover how the tailored versions will be worn and the keys to adopting the silhouette that will replace traditional shorts.
As the coldest weeks of winter pass in our country, the fashion gaze is already fixed on the trends that dominate the Northern Hemisphere and will shape the path of the upcoming summer season in Argentina. Among the garments most seen on the streets of European capitals, Bermuda shorts have consolidated themselves as the absolute icon of urban style.
This garment serves as the equivalent to the midi skirt of trousers. It sits at a perfect middle ground between ultra-short shorts and mid-length silhouettes such as capri pants or pirate styles, offering a universal fit that flatters various body types and adapts to multiple personal styles.
The silhouette on the horizon: how to choose the right length and cut
When planning a purchase or pulling a garment from the closet for the new season, proportion is the decisive factor. The most flattering version seen on the runways is a straight cut and sits about three fingers above the knee.
To achieve a structured and elegant look, the trend points to favor garments with front-button and front-closure at the waist over elasticized waists. The models with darts bring fluidity, keep the drape clean, and allow playing with looser silhouettes that combine freshness with a formal imprint.
How to pair the tops and maintain balance
The volume of the Bermuda shorts determines which upper pieces to wear to achieve a harmonious look. In transitional looks, when Bermuda shorts are loose, the simplest option is to opt for form-fitting tees, fine-knit tops, or lightweight shirts that can be tucked into the pants to define the waist.
A styling trick that made a strong impression on international street style for pieces with front-fastening is to leave the last buttons undone. This reinforces the pyramidal line traced by the Bermuda shorts in their fall, visually lengthening the figure and adding dynamism to the entire ensemble.
From the office to everyday use: the versatile garment of the new season
The great virtue of Bermuda shorts lies in their ability to adapt to different dress codes. By offering more coverage than a traditional short, they serve as the perfect solution to assemble office looks during hot days, pairing seamlessly with light blazers and open-toe footwear.
Moreover, worn with basic tank tops, accessories in natural fibers, or flat sandals, this same garment instantly becomes a go-to for leisure time. Foreseeing the arrival of this trend allows you to refresh your wardrobe with a comfortable, sophisticated, and highly functional option.
