Above: Banana Republic’s Rolled Denim Short – $69.50
As a man, if you wear jean shorts you’ll be labeled by many as a style buffoon. A slob. Out of touch. They had their heyday, but wearing a pair of shorts made of thicker denim, a fabric originally intended as workwear, on a hot day seems uncomfortable. The next step on the scale of garment oddity coupling would be shorts made from a tweedy flannel. Strange.
But if a woman slides her gams into a pair of denim shorts? It’s no longer quite so clear.
Worked then. Still works now. Maybe it ain’t the paint, but the canvas.
The (most) correct answer would be a light beach/sundress… but are denim shorts as big of a miss on a woman as they are on a man? Is it a look you wouldn’t mind seeing more of? To the comments fellas…
