Disco Shorts

Disco Shorts! Have you ever heard of even the word 'disco' these days??

When I got hold of these pictures, I was thrilled at the rebel of an idea - Disco Shorts in 2010?

Well for the old timers (you know who you are...secretly at least!), disco nights are when the young things in the 70's and 80's bring out their very best bling and dance the night away at clubs. Nights like that called for big hair (made possible with cans of hairspray), loud and heavy accessories and of course the bling continues from accessories to the dress!

These shorts you see are from designer Ashish Gupta's S/S 2010 collection. He is a UK-based designer who had his debut collection back in 2001 and has steadily gained international respect and recognition. Thanks to him, we have the Disco Shorts sliding back to the 21st century in high-fashion style.

How could you possibly wear these unapologetic shimmering loose cut shorts with style and look so chic that noone would pass you off as a time traveller from the 80's? The picture below gives you the perfect ensemble.



Interestingly though, you could make a variation of these shorts on your own.

1) Get a pair of cotton shorts that have a similar cut. (Make sure they fit you well, you wouldn't want your butt cheeks popping out!)

2) Sew on gold/silver sequins in any design of choice. Sequins can be bought at any arts and crafts store.

3) Wear it if you dare!
