The micro shorts trend is going nowhere, and it now counts Bella Hadid and Daisy Edgar-Jones as fans

First, it was the micro mini skirt that made a surprising resurgence, now it seems an equally as unlikely short style has taken the top spot when it comes to stylish summer dressing. Never mind the spontaneous showers that keep making themselves known, everyone from Sydney Sweeney to Daisy Edgar-Jones and even a whole host of influencers, can't stop wearing these short shorts cementing them as a must-have piece for summer 2024.

Tapping into the Y2K revival that's been taking over the fashion scene as of late, the return of the micro short or hot pants (for those of us who saw them the first time around), comes as no surprise. First spotted on the catwalks of Miu Miu in AW23, the micro short trend took a while to trickle down into the wardrobes of our favourite celebs and influencers, however now that they're here we predict it's a piece you're going to be seeing a lot more of going forward. 

If you're thinking there's no way you could incorporate micro shorts into your own wardrobe, think again, as we've found a heap of stylish looks to look to for inspiration. Don't believe us? Just keep scrolling...

4. Kristen Stewart's grandadcore micro shorts look

Earlier this year, while out in New York, Kristen took business casual to a whole new level pairing a smart cream button down with a pair of cable knit micro shorts from Bruno Cucinelli's SS24 collection. She switched between loafers and court heels as the day went on and, while both work to transform the look and feel of the trend, we love the combination of the knit shorts and heels for an interesting take on TikTok approved grandadcore.
