No longer reserved for off-duty weekends or beach getaways, designers from Gucci to Dior are making a strong case for shorts that go just about anywhere. Formal, casual, or somewhere in between—the shorts are having a moment (again).
Picking the right pair all comes down to proportion. Above-the-knee cuts add a refined edge without slipping into schoolboy territory. The look stays polished but effortless—perfect for dress-code proof dressing.
Why functional bags are your must-have this summer?
For Spring/Summer 2025, Gucci and Dolce & Gabbana are keeping it tailored, pairing sharply cut shorts with structured blazers, crisp shirts, and leather loafers. Meanwhile, Fendi and Dior Men ease up on the formality, adding graphic tees, baseball caps, and crossbody bags for a sportier spin.
Our styling advice is to aim for a trim fit that flatters the thigh. And the shoes? Keep them sleek. Low-profile sneakers or leather sandals ground the look in quiet luxury, with a nod to athleisure.
Gentlemen, don’t shy away from the shorts, treat them with the same consideration as you would with trousers.
