How to wear boxer shorts this summer After the underwear version, is it now the sports model's turn to experience the quarter hour of popularity?
Boxer shorts are comfy, lightweight, cool, more versatile than we think and ready to return to our wardrobes as a passe to reconcile style and comfort on these hot days. A companion to a rediscovered passion for the early 2000s, this garment, often in bright hues and made from materials like satin or silk, is a candidate to be a viable alternative to miniskirts and dresses, even and more interesting than their cotton version, which comes straight from men's underwear and has recently conquered Bella Hadid and Kendall Jenner. Remember their pictures that went viral in Los Angeles and New York in pantsless looks? Lo and behold, boxers are the athleisure evolution of those boxers, popping up mischievously under Miu Miu's longuettes, low-waist skirts and shorts, N.21's slinky outfits or Etro's pyjama sets.
Boxing shorts on the catwalks
Today, the boxer shorts are taking on more and more space, paving the way for their athleisure version. In fact, the signature boxer shorts are always in the spotlight and reinterpreted on the catwalk in different seasons and by different brands, from Versace FW19 to Fenty x Puma SS18. One of his most recent moments on the catwalk? In Dior's SS22 collection. And there we can get inspired on how to wear it this summer. The rest depends on our personal taste. There are those who prefer to take advantage of the sporty nature of the garment by pairing it with a simple tank top and trainers, and those who, like their underwear "cousins'," prefer matchy-matchy sets with a matching shirt and perhaps a pair of sandals or ballet shoes on their feet. A different styling to try out? Like Gilda Ambrosio, co-creative director of The Attico, who wears a tank top, maxi blazer and high-heeled sandals with white socks with boxers.
