Summer Fashion Trends that Turn Guys Off

Summer style options are endless for women: shorts, skorts, rompers, maxis, minis… you name it! The climate also justifies in-your-face accessories like bold sunglasses and hats. But not all trends are created equal! We surveyed men all over the country to weigh in on the summer items that turn them off. We also consulted with Will Welch, Senior Editor at GQ, on why certain trends may be unappealing to guys. "Sexiness is as vague of a term as beauty," says Welch. "Is a long, flowing skirt a man repeller but a short mini skirt is a man attractor? It totally depends. It also depends on what kind of man a woman is trying to attract." The men we surveyed seemed to prefer the overtly seductive look. Welch reminds us to make sure trends flatter our figures and personalities: "It depends on the woman, how she's wearing it, how she carries herself, and what all that is leading her to project." With this in mind, check out the top summer styles that turn men off. It may be time to rethink your warm weather wardrobe! By Joanna Douglas, Senior Fashion and Beauty Editor
