Shorts suits walk that fine line between casual and formal - perfect for a season of semi-casual events.
But are they right for the workplace?
That's entirely up to the wearer, and the place of work. A tailored jacket in a structured fabric with a matching pair of shorts just above the knee (longer culottes are another option worth experimenting with) can provide a refreshing, professional alternative, particularly when worn with an equally sharp pair of brogues or pumps.
Shoes really are the game-changer here, and when it comes to short suits, you can go formal or casual with the addition of a classic loafer or a pair of sandals or trainers.
