shortest shorty shorts are barely shorts at all




These shorts were featured in Balenciaga's Spring 2012 collection yet frankly I'm not sure if I could call them shorts at all.



For some background on the house's designers let me just show you a list I found on style.com

- Nicolas Ghesquière, Spring 1998 - Present
- Josephus Thimister, 1992 - Fall 1997
- Michel Goma, 1987 - 1991
- Cristóbal Balenciaga, 1918 - 1968

Also, they're French and owned by the Gucci Group N.V., and often compared to Balmain--another French label.



Here's some cool stuff from Balenciaga:

But back to those shorts. I've seen the style before, only with vintage Levi's jean cut-offs.

too short to function

What do you think?
