A *very* short story
If there’s one thing fashion loves, it’s a surprise. And right now, we’re doing a double take – because somehow, both jorts and micro shorts are having a moment.
Jorts and Bermuda shorts have long outlived their expected trend cycle, yet they continue to dominate, with fresh iterations filling new autumn collections. And honestly? We’re not mad about it. But just as long shorts keep their grip on the fashion scene, their polar opposite is rising to the top: micro shorts.

Yes, we’re talking teeny-tiny, leg-baring shorts in every fabric and silhouette imaginable – lace, suede, bubble hems, classic denim. They’re the hottest (or should we say smallest?) must-have pants of the season.
Not only will your booty thank you, but your legs will too, with automatic elongation built into the look. For summer, pair them with anything from a white tee to a crisp button-up and heels – effortless yet undeniably chic.
And when the temps drop? Just add stockings. A sheer black or patterned pair styled with boots or closed-toe heels and a blazer instantly makes micro shorts winter-ready – perfect for a night out in the Brissy chill.
