9 Cool Ways To Style Bermuda Shorts

Bermuda shorts have proved themselves to be a style staple and we personally, couldn’t be happier. Gone are the days of Daisy Dukes and denim cut-offs and instead 2020 was the year we adopted the knee-grazing length for good. Feeling every bit as laidback as denim, but are sophisticated enough to wear in the city as well as at the beach, Bermuda shorts are a wardrobe essential. But don’t just take our word for it, here are 9 different looks that prove there are endless ways to style them, no matter what the season.

(1) Prada Spring/ Summer 2019; Chanel Cruise 2020; Bottega Veneta Spring/ Summer 2020

Tailored Bermuda shorts don’t need to feel stuffy, especially when designers like Prada, Chanel and Bottega Veneta have all proved that they can be worn in a myriad of ways. Wear with a relaxed white t-shirt, layered with a knit vest or take them into evening with the addition of square-toed heels and a coordinating blazer.

(2) Old Celine Vibe

For a look that hails back to the glory days of Celine, we love Bermuda shorts styled with crisp shirting for the ultimate city look. Opt for a lightly tailored style for a draped fit that also doesn’t feel too fussy and pair with a tucked-in shirt, blazer and heels for a look that you can wear straight to dinner from the office.

(3) Suits

Bermuda shorts are the perfect way to do casual suiting. Equally chic when worn with a relaxed fit t-shirt and leather sandals or with statement earrings and a linen blazer in the city, we guarantee they’ll be the hardest working item in your transitional wardrobe.

(4) Coat

Bermuda shorts paired with a timeless longline coat like a trench is an A/W staple. Opt for a pastel shade which will bring a much-needed mood boost coming into fall and pair with knee boots and a suede jacket for a laidback yet luxe approach.

(5) Boots

The combination of Bermuda shorts, a throw-on jacket and knee-high boots is an easy look to throw together but will make you look totally on-trend and ready for anything without spending too much time combing through your wardrobe. Try breaking up your outfit by playing with textures, think suede boots and a fuzzy knit.

(6) Denim Bermuda Shorts

Still loyal to denim, but looking for a grown-up alternative to cut-offs? With a cinched waist and oversized fit leg, a high-waisted Bermuda style is endlessly chic. Add a crisp white shirt, gold jewellery and leather sandals for a look that is more city girl than skater.

(7) Sweater

Fall is precisely our favourite season for the fact that we get to invest in new knitwear and we love the look of Bermuda shorts with a chunky oversized knit. Perfect for these awkward in-between months, pair with sneakers and an oversized clutch for a street-style approved look.

(8) Blazer

For a look that says you mean business, there’s no better pairing than Bermuda shorts and a cool, oversized blazer. Tuck in a crisp shirt, add high heels and accessorize with a chunky statement necklace.

(9) Interesting Top

Traditional suiting feels new again when shorts are teamed with a sleeveless racerback vest or an asymmetric strappy top. This look is polished enough for evening drinks, but can also be worn with white sneakers and gold hoops for a cool, laid-back vibe during the day.
