LONDON -- Prince George might just be Late Bloomer (2024) Full Pinoy Moviethe best dressed three-year-old around.
Not a day goes by without the little prince sporting a quintessentially British ensemble, complete with his signature shorts and knee socks.

Etiquette expert William Hanson told Mashablethat George's propensity for wearing shorts actually stems from an age-old aristocratic tradition, one that the royal family has been sticking to for generations.
"The reason is predominantly to do with social class because everything in British society is to do with social class," Hanson told Mashable.
Hanson says that the reason for wearing shorts also has "historical roots" and is a "custom we can trace back to the 16th century". "If you look back at old paintings of children from aristocratic families, you see little boys aged two and under dressed as girls, wearing gowns and dresses," Hanson continued. "In the 17th and 18th centuries, boys of age three or four were put in breeches, which are basically shorts," said Hanson.
'Breeching' dates back to the mid-16th century and pertains to the first moment a young boy dresses in breeches rather than a gown or dress.
"From the late 18th century, it just became the thing to put young boys in shorts," Hanson said. "Trousers were something to be worn by men, and little boys would be put in shorts."
This aristocratic tradition is still being upheld by the royal family and countless other members of the British upper crust, according to Hanson.
"It has a little to do with the snob factor. A lot of mothers want their little boys to dress like little boys rather than like men," Hanson told Mashable.
Dressing young boys in trousers is something of a "suburban practice", says Hanson."The royal family is not suburban. That doesn’t mean it's ‘common;’ it's just a different set of values," Hanson continued.
