Dad shorts: A new summer trend embraced by celebrities

Fashion in recent years has mainly taken one direction – oversize. Loose cuts dominate the runways, streets, and store shelves. "Wide leg" pants have almost entirely replaced skinny jeans. And what about shorts, which become an object of interest in the summer? The situation is analogous. We no longer look favorably upon short shorts that cling to the buttocks.

Models in Britney Spears's style have been replaced by shorts inspired by a father's wardrobe. We're specifically talking about a style with wide legs that reach the knees. "Dad shorts" can be made of fabric or denim—then they are known as "jorts," loved by, among others, Julia Wieniawa. However, it is indisputable that in the summer, thick denim fades into oblivion for a while, making way for more breathable fabrics.

Foreign celebrities have gone crazy for "dad shorts." In early June, Jessica Alba appeared in a gray suit set with a classic blazer and shorts with a masculine touch. This is what differentiates them, among other things, from Bermuda shorts. Many stylists will be opposed to this trend because "dad shorts" simply shorten the legs. But fashion is not just about perfect proportions. Playing with form is always valuable.

Hailey Bieber wore dad shorts from her dad's closet last summer. A thin belt and a tight crop top complemented a white model with maximally wide legs. At first glance, it's clear that this trend won't appeal to everyone. "Dad shorts" are worn by the bolder representatives of the fashion world.

Bella Hadid wore very similar attire, but a year earlier! As you can see, "dad shorts" have been trying to break into the fashion mainstream for several seasons. The model fears no trends, so she donned wide shorts, pairing them with a tailored shirt and boots.

If you're a fan of the masculine style, then "dad shorts" are definitely a novelty for you.
