Fashion has plenty of legs when it comes to Spring Summer 2010 trends. Women the world over will be flashing their pins in sexy hotpants, bottom-skimming boy shorts and pantaloon-style bloomers. What they all have in common is the length — short short short and short.
Shorts for Spring 2010
Shorts are the spring’s new must-buy, whether for work, play or evening wear. This season’s new-found legginess, takes its lead from Fall Winter 2009’s thigh-high boots and trendy tights, and manifests itself in everything from big knickers to vintage-style baggy pantaloons.
This trend will have women reaching for their fake tan and running to the gym, as the must-have accessory to these shorter-than-short pieces are toned legs.
Shorts and Hot Pants Trend
Dubbed by Uk Vogue as “hotpantaloons,” baggy shorts with turned-up cuffs are worn under blazers or slouchy tops for this season’s style chic. These bloomers take their inspiration from tap pants, which ruled the runways of Louis Vuitton, Marc Jacobs, Prada, Fendi, Alexander Wang and Danielle Scutt. Wear them in this season’s neutral and nude tones for a timeless, sophisticated look.
High-waisted hot pants (a là Prada) take on a vintage stance and for evening, studded and sequined hotpants take the place of the mini dress. Dare-to-bare as much leg as possible with hotpant hemlines no longer than 2 inches down the thigh.
