Part lingerie, part XL shorts, bloomers add effortless edge to your summer look …
It’s all about contrast: wear a pair of lingerie-inspired lace-trim shorts with a simple crew-neck sweater or barn jacket. The clash of boudouir-meets-workwear will look edgy and interesting.
Look to brands like Australian label Posse (get it at Brown Thomas) which specialises in cotton bloomer shorts with bubble hems and nostalgic California brand Dôen (pictured above). On the high street, check out Kate Moss’s festival collaboration with Zara.
As for footwear? Keep it classic. A pair of nightie shorts is tempered by the addition of classic ballet flats that exude polish.
As for prints? Polka dot and gingham prints are key, as are paisley prints that speak to sunkissed summer days.

The look is all about the legs. Balance out the micro-length of bloomer shorts by pairing them with a long-sleeved T-shirt or blouse. You want to look effortless, not overtly sexy. Finish with a pair of trending boat shoes, for extra style kudos.
