It’s officially summer, so it’s time to show some skin. And one leg-focused trend that’s emerged from the spring 2022 shows is the haute spin on humble boxer shorts (courtesy of Dior, Balenciaga, Tom Ford, and Valentino, to name a few). Some might consider the piece more appropriate for lounging at home, but lately, the It-girls have confirmed that boxers are perfect for breezing your way through a day of sweltering heat. Kendall Jenner’s latest ensemble serves to underline the point.
Spotted out with friends in Malibu, the 26-year-old wore an updated take on the supermodel off-duty uniform. The look comprised pastel yellow boxer shorts by Aritzia, a ribbed tank top from her sister Kim’s brand Skims, an Almina oversized long-sleeve striped shirt, and a black pair of Adidas Samba trainers. Kendall finished off the low-key outfit with black micro-shades, and a black leather tote bag from her favourite brand, The Row.
The key to introducing boxer shorts into your everyday wardrobe is to elevate them with polished pieces—and thus avoid looking like you forgot to get dressed before leaving the house. Balance out the borrowed-from-your-boyfriend item with a strappy pair of kitten heels, or, like Kendall, a crisp shirt and leather statement bag.
