If you've been paying attention, you know I've been calling this trend for a while now. While attending Copenhagen Fashion Week shows in August 2023, I noticed tons of long shorts on the runways, noting their prevalence in my trend report. Cut to summer 2024, and long shorts are eclipsing short denim cutoffs in popularity.
Jessica Alba is the latest celebrity to test-drive the trend. Making an appearance on The View in New York City, she wore a suit by Armarium along with Jimmy Choo shoes and a Valentino bag. If micro shorts aren't quite your thing, perhaps this more modest trend will be right up your alley. There are so many options to choose from, whether you want tailored versions for the office or breezy linen shorts for vacation.
