Boxer shorts have officially gone from your dad’s drawers to the fashion forefront. This growing obsession with underwear as outerwear has been dominating runways and red carpets, proving that what was once private is now very, very public.
It all started with major fashion houses flipping the script on what counts as “pants.” Miu Miu’s Spring 2022 show had us doing double takes with ultra-mini skirts that flashed branded waistbands, letting logos do all the talking. Over at Collina Strada, white boxers paired with baby tees and tiny skirts brought a nostalgic Y2K vibe.
Of course, Hollywood has been quick to co-sign. Kendall Jenner, Bella Hadid, and Hailey Bieber have all been spotted rocking men’s underwear as shorts, turning an otherwise lazy-day staple into a full-on street-style moment. Now, Filipino style stars are catching up with the trend. See how they’re rocking it here.
How Local Celebs Are Making the Peeking Boxers Trend Their Own

Heart Evangelista is fully embracing the visible underwear trend. Posing with Hermès executive Michael Coste, she paired baggy trousers and peeking boxers with a cropped racer top, topping off the look with her ultra-luxe Himalayan Birkin.
2. Liza Soberano
During her New York adventures, Liza Soberano stopped by Helmut Lang for a quick hangout with the brand’s then-creative director, Peter Do. Embracing a laid-back vibe, she styled baggy cut-off trousers with blue boxers peeking out, a cropped white tee, and a pair of Adidas Sambas.
