Shops on Etsy sell high-waisted shorts in a variety of materials, lengths, and sizes, including petite and plus-size high-waisted shorts. Here are a few popular types to consider:


  • Jean shorts: High-waisted jean shorts are stylish, comfortable, and—like your favorite denim—go with practically anything.
  • Belted shorts: Wear high-waisted belted shorts in linen or cotton for either casual or dressy occasions like garden parties or weekend corporate retreats.
  • Swim shorts: Two-piece bathing suits with high-waisted swim shorts are just as popular now as they were in the 1940s and ‘50s. Go retro with a ruched waist or find a brightly patterned pair to make your beach look pop.
  • Athletic shorts: Keep your workout stylish and comfortable with a pair of high-waisted athletic shorts. Popular options include high-waisted bike shorts, running shorts, or yoga shorts.

You can style high-waisted shorts in many different ways. For a glam vintage-inspired look, tuck a crisp white blouse into form-fitting shorts and slip into a pair of black heels. Or go back to the ‘90s with a pair of loose-fitting high-waisted jean shorts and a cute babydoll tee under an oversized flannel shirt.


High-waisted shorts can be worn year-round, too. On warm spring or hot summer days, opt for lightweight linen high-waisted shorts and pair them with your favorite tank top or T-shirt for easy breezy style. When fall rolls around, keep cozy with dark denim shorts worn over leggings, a knit sweater, and a pair of toasty boots.
