While denim shorts are a major summer mainstay, I’ve started to notice another piece take hold this season: tailored shorts. Even Meghan Markle has taken on this polished trend. While I don’t expect to see denim shorts slink away entirely, I’m not surprised that the sharply tailored bottoms are taking over. After all, it’s the summer of the clean-girl aesthetic. Sleek, polished, anti-trend pieces are everywhere, so it only makes sense that fashion people are gravitating to the easy, minimal shorts right now.
When it comes to styling, you can approach them in a similar way to denim shorts or jeans. The fashion set has been wearing them with looks that are casual yet pulled-together—pairing them with everything from white tees and strappy sandals to bandeau tops and slingback heels. Ahead, get inspiration for how to wear tailored shorts this season and tap into the cool looks that are defining effortless summer style.
