For those who don’t want the standard jean and those who don’t want shorts, capris just might be the answer

I don’t want to show off my upper thighs in some cheek-revealing Daisy Dukes, nor do I want to be sweaty and constricted in a pair of suffocatingly thick jeans. But what I will do is show off a sliver of ankle—and maybe a bit of shin!—with capris.
In the present, however, you don’t see very many capris on the runway. There was a whisper of one from the Chanel spring 2021 show, and they came cropped and kicky in a sassy shade of red. But that scarcity wasn’t always the case: For the spring collections in 1998, capris dotted the runways of Anna Sui and Prada. Currently, I’ve been on the hunt for a vintage rendition, digging into eBay and Etsy for freaky-chic, print-heavy capris from Blumarine, Roberto Cavalli, and Versace.
Yet, capris can be really, really hot and not only classic. And if the yesteryear runways aren’t convincing enough, just look to J.Lo. In 2005, at the end of the fall show for her now defunct Sweetface label, Lopez wore a pair of white capris with a cropped white turtleneck. It’s totally glamorous with a hint of kitsch and fun. A capri goes with, well, everything and everyone.
