Shorts are a natural wardrobe staple during this time of year, but finding new ways to style them often feels challenging. With so many trending styles this season, from Bermudas to sport shorts and satin silhouettes, we’re breaking down the best ways to wear every iteration with a little help from our favorite celebrities.
Vogue’s Favorite Shorts, Inspired by Celebs:
The latest celebrity takes on shorts go far beyond traditional cut-offs, with elevated silhouettes taking center stage. From longline styles, like Jennifer Lawrence’s denim jorts, to Margot Robbie’s polished Bermuda style, these outfit formulas offer new ideas built around the best basics, making these summer staples feel impossibly fresh.
Poplin boxer shorts get the supermodel off-duty treatment thanks to Vittoria Ceretti, who layered a striped pair with a crewneck T-shirt, button-down shirt, and flat suede mules. Retro-inspired sport shorts are made heatwave-approved with Zoë Kravitz’s minimalist approach, who paired them with a simple pointelle camisole and black ballet flats. Meanwhile, Alexa Chung brought back the utilitarian trend, wearing a pocketed pair with a khaki shirt and thong-heeled pumps.
Whatever mood or style you prefer, consider this your guide to shopping (and styling!) the summer short lineup. Ahead, 9 celebrity shorts outfits that take the guesswork out of warm-weather outfitting.
