Women's Shorts

When you’re shopping for women’s shorts, start at Macy’s. We carry all kinds of shorts for women, from fashionable high-waisted shorts to pajama shorts for lounging and sleeping, plus everything in between. Macy’s makes it simple to find the right fit with plus size shorts and petite shorts designed for frames 5’4” and under. It’s always a good idea to update your cache of classics, like women’s denim shorts and cargo shorts. Now’s also the perfect time to give other styles a chance, too. Here’s how to refresh your wardrobe with new shorts.

Ideas for Casual and Dress Shorts
Are you looking for women’s dress shorts for the workweek? Start by shopping for long shorts for women in crisp, polished fabrics. Then team these women's knee-length shorts, such as Bermuda shorts, with office-ready separates like blouses and blazers. Finally, complete the look with a pair of pumps or flats. Are you stuck in a styling rut with women’s jean shorts? While jean shorts make a natural partner for a tee or a tank top, an airy blouse or a slinky camisole will elevate the look. Slip on some sandals, and you’re all set. Beat the heat this summer in women’s linen shorts or women’s chino shorts. Both types of summer shorts for women utilize natural fibers, which breathe more than synthetics. Not ready for full-on shorts? Try a skort instead. They’re just like comfy shorts for women but with a skirted front.

Active Shorts Outfits
Athletic shorts are ideal for workouts. And their styling opportunities can extend far beyond the gym and track. Raise your athleisure game with bike shorts. Pair these fitted, stretchy shorts with a crop top for the gym. Afterward, add on an oversized top (anything from a hoodie to a blazer) and swap sneakers for low heels for a model-off-duty look. Want another way to freshen up women’s pull-on shorts? Wear them with unexpected socks, like crew-length, knee-high, or thick scrunch socks to unlock their fashion potential. Swim shorts make an excellent alternative to bikini bottoms. Styles like women’s board shorts add a surfer-inspired vibe to tankini and triangle tops.
