How To Wear... Women's Shorts

  • 2 min read

Designed for summer weather, the Community Clothing women's short collection is built for scorching hot days. Made with pure, breathable organic cottons and lightweight linens, each style is thoughtfully constructed to elevate your wardrobe from a standard short.

The work shorts

These are a new style for this summer that we developed from our bestselling work jean, the magic jean. It's flat fronted, super flattering, and then it's got the twin needle construction at the side.

Mid-thigh length with big patch mitered pockets and a tailored fishtail back detail that notches beautifully to create a waist. 

It's cut from a nice 8 oz lightweight organic cotton denim. They're perfect for hot days; they won't feel like a pair of jeans, but they will wear and age beautifully like proper denim.

Clean look with a breezy leg, finished with tonal stitching on the black denim variant to dress it up a bit.

The short sport shorts

These are a long-standing staple built specifically as an easy summer lightweight short. They are an organic cotton fabric, lightweight twill, super lovely, with a really really easy construction.

Simple unlined design featuring a short cut with a side vent that borders on the hot-pants region.

They are really good for exercise because they haven't got any synthetics in. They're super breathable and they dry quick because of being a lightweight cotton.

The heavyweight sport shorts

These are a similar short length, but they're in a slightly heavier construction fabric, so they're more like a drill feel." 

Styled like a durable 1980s rugby or hockey short that stays breezy in the heat.

They've got this really nice integrated pocket that sews down to create that seam line. They're elasticated on the front, the back, so they're like an easy pull up.

The jersey shorts

This is another new style we've just brought out - really easy, really really casual, but also quite elegant. It's just a super simple flat fronted jersey short.

Inspired by vintage American college athletic wear, crafted with a pure cotton draw cord and an accommodating patch back pocket.

It's the exact same pure organic cotton flat jersey we use to make all of our classic t-shirts. They're the kind of short you could wear if you want to do some kind of sport, but they're also perfect for bed wear as a summer pyjama or comfy loungewear.
