There are two major denim trends this summer that sit on opposite ends of the spectrum: sassy miniskirts and modest Bermuda shorts. Back in May, Kendall Jenner was spotted out on a Citi Bike in a slouchy sweater and denim Bermudas, which felt like a cousin of the thigh-hugging biker short. The look has previously been worn by both Gigi and Bella Hadid, as well. Meanwhile, the noughties-beloved denim mini has once again found itself circling the street style sphere—not on Paris Hilton, but Rihanna and Emily Ratajkowski, who both wore the abridged piece out and about this summer.
Want to get the look? If you feel like covering up, Bermuda shorts may be more your speed. Opt for a loose, wide-leg pair from Topshop or a dark-wash culotte hybrid by MM6. If you’re looking to give your summer look some edge, the miniskirt can move from day to night. Standouts include a cream version from Warp Weft, an asymmetrical cut by DL1961, and a polished black one from Oak Fort.
Here, shop the best options for denim miniskirts and Bermuda shorts, before the summer comes to a close.
