Tailored shorts are designed like pants but cut shorter and can be made of various fabrics. Women’s shorts have a wide fit at the hem and a fitted waistband, while men’s shorts are casual and made of denim, cotton, twill, or linen. Some jobs allow tailored shorts for comfort and uniformity. Shorts can also be custom-made or altered to fit.
Tailored shorts generally refer to men’s and women’s shorts that are similar in design to pants but are cut in a short length. They are often made of cloth, cotton, linen, denim, or seersucker. The term can also refer to any style of shorts, whether for men, women, or children, that are tailored or altered to fit.
Women’s tailored shorts come in a variety of inseams, from just below the knee to one inch (2.5 cm). They may be lined or unlined and usually have a cuff. The fit is wide at the hem and skims the hips and buttocks to prevent the shorts from bunching up. They also have a fitted waistband with a button and zipper. Some styles are also pleated.
Depending on the trend of the season, women’s tailored shorts can come in menswear shades or bright shades. They may also have other embellishments such as pockets, laces, and exposed zippers. In some cases, women wear these shorts in winter with thick tights or leggings. They are often paired with a loose-fitting blazer in cooler climates, or with a loose, feminine shirt in warmer places.
Men’s shorts often have the same cut and style as a pair of pants. They are generally considered casual and are not worn in business or work situations. They are dressier than gym shorts, which are very baggy and often made of flexible material. Like the women’s shorts, they also have a fitted waistband, but the cuff is optional. Common fabrics are denim, cotton, twill, and linen.
Some occupations require a lot of movement and physical activity. If this is the case, a company will often allow their employees to wear tailored shorts for comfort while maintaining proper, uniform dress. Delivery truck drivers, postal workers, fitness teachers, and waiters or waitresses working at sidewalk cafes often wear tailored shorts.
An alternative type of tailored shorts are simply any pair of shorts that have been altered to fit. These are not exclusive to women. A tailor or seamstress can custom make shorts and then adjust them to fit. Another option is to buy ready-made shorts and have them altered. In both cases, the shorts may be of any style, fabric, or color.
