The New Denim Short

Monday 5th Jan 2015


There’s a new denim short on the scene.

Dare I say it, it’s kind of like a ‘boyfriend short’ (to add to our collection of boyfriend jeans, boyfriend blazers and boyfriend tees as our significant others all release a collective sigh, whilst muttering under their breath).

It’s a little longer and looser than your standard denim cut-off, but still retains that tell-tale frayed hem which ensures it’s more ‘charmingly tomboyish’ and less ‘Bemuda-short-without-irony’.

The funny thing is, you’ve most probably owned them for some time already without even realising it.

They’re in that neglected stack of jeans at the back of your wardrobe, disguised by a woefully outdated boot-cut leg. You’ve hung onto them because they fit great around your waist and are really flattering on your rear-end, but no matter how hard you’ve tried, there’s just no getting around those flared calves.

So it’s with my entirely self-appointed ‘Makeover Police’ authority that I instruct you to cut them off a couple of inches above your knees so as to finally realise their potential!

But maybe you’re a ruthless wardrobe editor and no longer own any of the unfortunate, aforementioned jeans?

Never fear. You don’t have to miss out! I just so happen to have put together an edit of all my favourite styles.
