Celebs turn thigh-baring ’70s micro shorts into the hottest trend this spring

Hot pants, Daisy Dukes, cut-offs.
Whatever you call them, micro shorts are back — but for some, it’s their worst nightmare.
In the latest take on Kendall Jenner’s panties-as-pants trend, the teeny, tiny denim trousers are projected to be this spring’s hottest trend (if only New York finally would warm up).
New York stylist Catherine Bibeau told The Post that a “micro short boom” is likely upon us as more brands and A-listers hawk the controversial garment, which she called “a must-have fashion piece.”
“Micro short popularity went mainstream during the ’70s disco due to its greater sign of liberation and women’s freedom,” Bibeau said. “Seen on many celebrities in the past, they are coming back because designers are offering a new take on the garment for the modern age.”
On spring/summer 2024 runways, skin-baring shorts took center stage, with Miu Miu’s sparkling skivvies, Gucci’s corporate cut-offs and leather hot pants from Khaite and Coach.
