MONOCLE
About this episode

To mark the summer solstice in the northern hemisphere, Monocle’s senior correspondent Fernando Augusto Pacheco and fashion director Natalie Theodosi tackle a vexed question: who wears short shorts in 2024? And should they? We also hear from Monocle’s US editor, Chris Lord, and get some live music from singer-songwriter Richard Thompson.
