WOMEN'S BERMUDA SHORTS, THE ELEGANT MIDDLE GROUND BETWEEN SHORTS AND CROPPED PANTS
BERMUDA SHORTS: AN UNFAIRLY OVERLOOKED PIECE IN THE FEMALE WARDROBE
Bermuda shorts have long had a bad reputation: too long to be shorts, too short to be cropped pants, accused of shortening the silhouette. That reputation is unfair, and we've been proving it wrong for a few seasons now. Cut with the right fit and a carefully considered length (between mid-thigh and just above the knee), bermuda shorts become one of the most elegant pieces in the summer wardrobe. At Place du Jour, we've made bermuda shorts an in-between-season signature: dressier than shorts, airier than cropped pants, ideal for the spring-summer transition.
ALL THE PLACE DU JOUR BERMUDA VARIATIONS
Place du Jour bermuda shorts come in several fabrics. Classic chino for a smart-casual feel. Denim for more relaxed looks. joggjeans for ultimate comfort. Colored cotton for signature pieces. On the finishing side: sharp front pleats to structure the silhouette, novelty buttons in gold on the waistband, and embroidered belts for standout styles. All our cuts are designed with a high waist.
HOW TO WEAR BERMUDA SHORTS WITHOUT SHORTENING YOUR SILHOUETTE
The bermuda trap: wearing flat, closed-toe shoes that break the line right below the knee. Opt instead for delicate sandals, wedge espadrilles, low-heeled mules, or sleek white sneakers. Up top: a semi-fitted top tucked in reveals the waist and balances out the length of the bottoms. An oversized shirt can work if it's half-tucked or knotted at the waist. Avoid overly voluminous tops that swamp the silhouette.
