Women’s Shorts at STRØM
Shorts are a wardrobe staple during the warmer months and flatter the legs. At STRØM, you’ll find women’s shorts for work, everyday outings, and summer events. We also carry men’s shorts.
Silhouettes and Fits
The cut at the waist and the width of the legs shape the silhouette against the body. High-waisted shorts with pleats over the hips accentuate the waist and provide room around the thighs. Tailored shorts with a crease fall straight to the knee and provide structure like dress pants. Slim-fit styles follow the body’s contours, while wide-leg linen shorts offer drape and breathability. Side slits and rolled-up hems add detail to the leg openings.
Materials and Textures
The choice of fiber determines the garment’s movement and its ability to insulate against heat. Linen and viscose provide lightness and a flowing drape over the hips without clinging to the skin. Cotton denim offers weight and withstands wear and tear throughout the seasons. Leather and suede add density and surface texture that refract light against blouses and tops. Twill or jacquard weaves provide pattern and stability in the waistband.
Styling tips
The combination of shorts, tops, and footwear changes the look to suit the occasion:
- Office and work: Pair tailored pleated shorts with a matching, shirt, top, tote bag, and loafers.
- Leisure and weekends: Pair denim shorts or linen shorts with a T-shirt, an oversized shirt, sunglasses, and sneakers.
