Women’s High Waist Linen Wide Leg Shorts

Clean and relaxed, these women’s high waist linen wide leg shorts are made from 100% linen and shaped with a pleated waistband and straight wide-leg hem. The silhouette has enough structure for office commuting while keeping the easy feel expected from everyday linen separates.

The white color gives the style a simple, versatile base, while custom colors can be developed for different seasonal collections. Invisible pockets at the front and back keep the outside of the garment visually clean, making the overall design feel considered without relying on extra decoration.

100% Linen with a Clean, Natural Look

The shorts use 100% linen, giving the fabric its characteristic natural surface and understated appearance. In white, the material creates a particularly clean foundation for a summer wardrobe and can be easily combined with shirts, blouses, T-shirts or lightweight tailoring.

The fabric specification can be discussed during development when a particular weight, texture or hand feel is required. Custom colors are also available, allowing the same silhouette to move into different seasonal palettes.

A Pleated Waist with an Easy Silhouette

The pleated waistband brings definition to the high-waisted construction without making the shorts look overly formal.

Below the waist, the cut opens into a straight wide-leg shape. Rather than tapering toward the hem, the legs maintain their volume, giving the garment a relaxed proportion that works well with both fitted and looser tops.

Waist height, pleat proportions, shorts length and leg width can be adjusted during sampling to suit a brand's preferred fit.

Pockets That Stay in the Background

Both the front and back pockets use an invisible construction, keeping the surface of the shorts relatively uninterrupted.

This detail is especially useful for a minimalist linen style. There is no need for prominent pocket flaps or visible hardware, so the focus remains on the fabric, waistband and overall silhouette.

Pocket placement and construction can be modified as part of the development process if a different functional or visual direction is required.

A Versatile Linen Short for Everyday Collections

The clean construction gives these shorts more range than a purely resort-oriented linen style.

For commuting, they can be paired with a tucked-in shirt, blouse or lightweight jacket. For everyday wear, a simple knit or T-shirt creates a more relaxed combination. The white base also works naturally with stronger seasonal colors, prints and textured tops.

This makes the silhouette suitable for collections that need a linen short to bridge casual and more polished styling.
