No matter if you are hand-cutting or purchasing new, length is the important choice when considering a pair of denims. And obviously, there are no hard and fast regulations (although there perhaps need to be). The ravers of the Nineties prefer their jean shorts down to the knee, but the bootylicious younger sets are much braver and wear them rather high. Seventies TV viewers will remember the Queen of denim shorts, Dukes of Hazard star, Daisy Duke, whose parents must have known she was going to really suit them when they gave her that name, in exactly the same manner as Messrs Wellington, Raglan and Stetson were named. Well it's nice to think so. Whether you're from the Catherine Bach or Jessica Simpson fan club, you'll have to give in and say both are quite a stunning looks, if you can pull it off. Oddly it's particularly suited to soaping up and hosing down cars, ideally in full public view, so that's where you'll see most cinematic exposures of the classic denim short.
