What are bermuda shorts?

Bermuda - one of the most popular variations of shorts among women. Their length reaches the knee or ends slightly higher. They are distinguished by a strict classical straight or flared cut. Costume models have pronounced arrows, deep pockets and a belt. They are extremely comfortable and pleasant to wear clothes.

Many wonder what the word "bermuda" means in the context of clothing, where did this name come from?

Initially, this style was created for men fighting in Bermuda, where the sultry tropical climate prevails, in order to save on fabric and rescue from the heat.

Over time, comfortable shorts moved into the "unisex" category and spread throughout the world. At first, women used them only for walking on the beach and swimming. Then Bermuda went into everyday life, and even "snuck" into office suites.

What is different from Bermuda shorts?

This cut differs from ordinary short shorts in its cut, which imitates the upper part of classic trousers, and in length. Bermuda can have a wide lapel at the bottom, loops under the belt. These clothes are made in a variety of styles: beach, casual, office, sports, etc.

Women's bermuda shorts are significantly different from their original version today: the length and scope of application has changed. Modern fashion trends have opened the beauty of women's knees, slightly shortening the product. Classic - Bermuda 10 centimeters above the knee. In addition, it is impossible to imagine drawing up an office kit with regular shorts. With bermudas, this is not only possible, but it turns out very stylish.

Who is suitable?

It is known that tall, slim ladies wear almost any clothes. No exception are Bermudas. The advantage of this type of clothing is that it allows you to hide the flaws of the problem figure in part of the hips (narrow or, on the contrary, wide).

When buying classic bermudas up to the knee, remember that their mistress still needs to have certain proportions: they definitely will not suit low women with forms.

Their fashionable shorts will not decorate: the figure will be "heavy", more squat.

Otherwise, this clothing is perfect: suitable for girls, girls, and women. Bermudas also enjoy wearing men for whom they were originally created.
