The It girl's guide to bermuda shorts
If hot pants ruled the hemlines of last summer, this season's silhouette of choice has taken a more measured approach. Enter, bermuda shorts. Straddling the style line between modest and modern, the once-retired knee-grazer has returned, spotted everywhere from runways to the streets in iterations that feel more polished and contemporary. Whether its cut from rugged denim or airy linen, bermudas have proven to take the cake on versatility—offering just enough coverage without compromising on edge.
If you need any further proof that bermudas are back in full force, look no further than the spring/summer 2025 runways. From Dior to Chanel, the silhouette made frequent appearances in shows. The Dior spring/summer 2025 ready‑to‑wear show featured an immersive fusion of athleticism and elevated glamour under Maria Grazia Chiuri's vision. Among the highlights was a standout pair of black jacquard technical taffeta bermuda shorts, etched with the archival Dior Graphique motif and finished with an elastic drawstring waist and zip pockets—a couture take on athletic allure. These bermudas were styled alongside coordinating bomber jackets, reinforcing the show's blend of performance wear and runway polish. Chanel hopped on the knee-length train at their spring/summer 2025 show as well where they offered a sophisticated reimagining of classic elegance infused with contemporary ease, under Virginie Viard's direction. The collection showcased bermuda shorts crafted from luxe tweed, a signature Chanel fabric elevated for warmer months. Coordinated with structured jackets and accessorised with mid-calf boots, the ensemble created a look that balanced tradition and modernity.

Off the runway, bermudas are coming out of retirement to become the comfortable yet fashionable go-to for it-girls across the globe. Spotted in New York, Suki Waterhouse was seen strutting the streets of the Big Apple in a full white ensemble, sporting a pair of distressed denim bermuda shorts paired with a structured white blazer, then finished with bold pink knee-high boots that sparkled with each step. Meanwhile, Gwyneth Paltrow took a more polished approach, recently sharing a snapshot featuring tailored bermuda shorts matched with an oversized blue-button down shirt, an outfit she deemed as one of her 'spring essentials'.

So now you're sold on bermudas—but where to start? These five styles are leading the charge, making it easy to find a pair that speaks to your both your mood and your wardrobe. Cargo styles channel utility cool when worn with a fitted tank and sneakers, while denim bermudas feel effortless with a baby tee and strappy sandals. Gwyneth Paltrow taught us that tailored versions shine with crisp shirting or boxy blazers, perfect for the office or dressed-up errands. Athleisure takes lean into comfort, easily styled with sporty tanks, baseball caps and retro sneakers. And for vacation-ready ease, linen bermudas pair best with breezy tops and minimalist slides. No matter your style code, one thing's certain: bermudas are no longer a fashion outlier—they're the summer staple with staying power.

Bandage dresses from the aughts are back. Here's how to style them
Picture this: it's 2008. You're getting ready with your friends for a night out dancing at the club, Beyoncé's 'Single Ladies' is blasting through the speakers and you've just slipped into a bandage dress. Life couldn't have been better. As millennial everything trends—from low-rise jeans to slogan tees, it's no surprise that the iconic bandage dresses of the mid-aughts—a skin-tight body hugging silhouette that was once a staple of the club circuit and red carpets alike—is having a major revival. Though Azzedine Alaïa may have shown the first set of bandage dresses in the 1980s, Hervé Léger popularised the style we know today. Made from thick, stretchy strips of fabric like rayon, nylon, and spandex, meticulously knitted together, the dress almost feels like second skin. Its construction is designed to lift, cinch and sculpt in all the right places, giving the perfect hourglass illusion. By the 2000s, the bandage dress had reached cult status, worn by everyone from Kim Kardashian and Beyoncé to Lindsay Lohan and Victoria Beckham. It was the ultimate 'It girl' uniform—binding and unapologetically bold. Fast forward to 2025, the bandage dress is shedding its over-the-top-party-girl image for a more refined and elegant direction—think longer hemlines, cleaner cuts, and toned-down palettes. Like Kaia Gerber's chic white bandage dress at the Toronto International Film Festival, a tribute to her supermodel mother's 1993 Oscars Hervé Léger number. And just when we thought we'd seen it all, Hailey Bieber gave us something entirely new to be obsessed with. And obsessed we are. Attending the Fashion Trust U.S awards, the supermodel and CCO of Rhode turned heads in a burgundy bandage dress by Saint Laurent. Below, a Vogue-approved edit of bandage dress styles to cop now.

Pretty things you'd want to wear: Fine jewellery picks from Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Cartier and more
[SINGAPORE] Most of us have a favourite piece of jewellery that we instinctively reach for when dressing up. If not, then you can be sure there is something from the latest fine jewellery selections coming out of luxury brands to tempt you. Whether it's Louis Vuitton's iconic Monogram or Chanel's famous quilted pattern, these are pieces that can work day or night, and carry you through the work week to the weekend. Here are some of our favourites: Louis Vuitton The six new pieces in the Idylle Blossom collection include long necklaces and rings. PHOTO: LOUIS VUITTON If you're a fan of the French luxury label, you'll be a fan of its delicate Idylle Blossom collection. Recently, six new creations have been added to the range, which showcases the maison's signature Monogram pattern blending flower motifs with its LV initials. These very pretty pieces include two long necklaces, three bracelets and a ring in pink or white gold with diamonds. While the necklaces and bracelets are refined and fluid, falling ever so delicately on the skin, the rings – crowned with four petals – are subtle yet unmistakably Louis Vuitton. This is jewellery for wearing all day, every day. Chanel Coco earrings in white and beige gold with diamonds. PHOTO: CHANEL The instantly recognisable quilting pattern beloved by the maison's founder, Coco Chanel, is the motif of choice in the Coco Crush collection. Known for its modern aesthetic that marries sharp lines with rounded shapes to convey both strength and femininity, the jewellery line has been joined by several new pieces this year. A NEWSLETTER FOR YOU Friday, 2 pm Lifestyle Our picks of the latest dining, travel and leisure options to treat yourself. Sign Up Sign Up Coco Crush bracelet in beige gold with or without diamonds. PHOTO: CHANEL Of particular note are earrings in completely new designs. One highlight features a pair of quilted hoops in white gold joined to another in beige gold as a single diamond dangles from where they connect. Look out too, for Coco Crush's bracelets in a new, diamond pave style, including one that is completely covered in the precious gem. All that's left to do? Mix and match these beauties as you deem fit. Bvlgari Making their debut this month are new additions to the Diva's Dream collection, including this pendant in yellow gold with black onyx and diamonds. PHOTO: BVLGARI A single earring in rose gold with carnelian and diamonds. PHOTO: BVLGARI The start of July also sees the addition of seven novelties to the Italian jeweller's Divas' Dream collection. Their utterly feminine, fan-shaped silhouettes now come in a new, vibrant yellow gold hue. Our top picks include a pendant necklace and stud earrings set where black onyx and diamonds are perfectly contrasted against the brilliance of yellow gold. But fret not if black is not your thing. There's a pair of pendant earrings with mother-of-pearl and diamonds, while splashes of colour feature in single earrings carrying carnelian, malachite and turquoise with diamonds. Set against the soft tone of rose gold, they're ready to perk you up, night or day. Cartier Panthere de Cartier bracelet in rose gold with onyx, black lacquer and tsavorite garnets. PHOTO: CARTIER What's better than jewellery featuring the French maison's emblematic panther head? One that features two heads, of course. In its latest fine jewellery selection launched this month, Cartier's rings and bracelets wrap smoothly around fingers and wrists to meet as a pair of panther heads facing each other. Graphic and expressive, it's easy to imagine these powerful creatures – portrayed in yellow or white gold with black lacquer or onyx and diamonds – as no less than your personal guardians. Dior Diorigami necklace in pink gold with diamonds, lepidolite, opal, turquoise, agate, chrysoprase, mother-of-pearl and pink lacquer. PHOTO: DIOR A playful yet precious garden. That's how Dior describes its new Diorigami jewellery set and we couldn't agree more. As its name suggests, the necklace and earrings were conceived as a tribute to the Japanese art of paper folding, with ornamental stones in graphic shapes and pastel colours giving them an almost toy-like appearance. Except, of course, these 'playthings' are also sumptuous and display a careful harmony of ornamental gems, diamonds and lacquer. Van Cleef & Arpels Perlee Couleurs bracelet in yellow gold with turquoise and diamonds. PHOTO: VAN CLEEF & ARPELS Perlee Couleurs between-the-finger ring in yellow gold with turquoise and diamonds. PHOTO: VAN CLEEF & ARPELS Perlee is one of the French jeweller's most distinctive designs, and when combined with colourful stones, they make up the wonderfully optimistic world of Perlee Couleurs. In this collection, cabochons of hard stones are encircled by a border of dainty golden beads. The latest material to join the family? Turquoise, which makes for a striking colour on one end of a bracelet and between-the-finger ring, while the other end is topped off with diamonds. Chaumet The new Jeux de Liens pendant in rose gold featuring all the colours of the rainbow. PHOTO: CHAUMET Happy hues are the priority over at the French jewellery-maker, whose focal piece is a new Jeux de Liens ('play of links') pendant in rose gold featuring all the colours of the rainbow. This calls for garnet, spessartite garnet, mandarin garnet, tsavorite garnet, citrine, peridot, sapphire, amethyst, pink sapphire and diamonds to sit together and exude nothing but pure joy. You would too, if you're wearing this lovely little piece. Pomellato The new Mini Nudo collection features Pomellato's signature 57-facet cut but on a more intimate scale. PHOTO: POMELLATO Nudo is the Italian jeweller's most iconic creation and its new Mini Nudo collection reflects the fun and energetic spirit of the design. The stone's signature 57-facet cut is delivered on a more intimate scale, with the pieces especially suited for stacking and combining with other Nudo pieces.
