This season, the most fashionable men come in small swimwear packages. Chaps are dropping the baggy board shorts in favor of snugger look. British high street retailer Debenhams has seen sales of tiny trunks rise by 242 percent – a stark contrast to the women’s trend for conservative Fifties-style costumes. Clearly men are taking a tip from the ‘bare it all’ male celebrities like David Beckham, David Gandy, and even Giorgio Armani. If you can’t beat ’em, throw on a pair of micro swim shorts.
