Women's High-Waisted Shorts

A higher waistband changes the whole feel of a short. It gives a cleaner silhouette, stays in place better when you're moving about, and pairs more naturally with the cropped and fitted tops that are everywhere right now. These sit at the natural waist, not uncomfortably high, just high enough to do what a high-waisted short should do. The waistband itself is wide enough to lie flat rather than roll or pinch.

The Pairing That Just Works

Lounge-style high-waisted shorts and crop tops are practically made for each other. The cropped length hits right at the waistband, giving a neat, intentional look that works whether you're lounging at home or heading out. For something a bit more covered up, a fitted t-shirt tucked in at the front keeps the shape without being too dressed up.

Available in sizes UK 4–24. If you want the high-waisted fit in a more active cut, the gym shorts are worth a look. For the softest, most relaxed take on the style, the sweat shorts in this waistline are ideal for staying in. Comes in black, white, grey, beige, and more across the colour range.
