Who wears short shorts? Børns wears short shorts! This past weekend at Coachella, Garret Borns—the artist known as Børns, a man with lush Aphrodite tresses and a siren’s voice—wore a deliciously risqué Gucci outfit that included a pair of Daisy Dukes. The micro shorts showed off Børns's hunky hamstrings, which he told Vogue.com, stay toned and limber through regular yoga: “Flexibility and balance make a huge difference in a performance for me.” Another bonus point for the thigh-baring ensemble? Børns claimed his defined gams glistened thanks to “a mixture of hot desert sun and adrenaline.” Noted.
It’s not the first time that a man has worn tiny cut-offs. The men’s runways were filled with itsy bitsy shorts for Prada Fall 2018 and at Gucci Spring 2018. But Børns’s get-up was a new kind of daring—not only due to the amount of leg exposed, but in its color choice, too. He opted for rose pink, a hue that his stylist Kat Typaldos says was a way for the look to “really pop against the desert style.” And while most men might not be as bold as Børns to show off their cared-for calves and god-like quadriceps, the entertainer left us with one last piece of short shorts wisdom. “Remember, your legs are the pillars to your temple,” he says. “Let them be free and the rest of you will follow.”
