When spring and summer turn up the heat, it's time to bring out shorts for women. Shop Madewell for a full collection of women's shorts. Our high-rise shorts, mid-length shorts or maternity shorts for women all get five-star reviews.


On the hunt for the perfect laid-back yet pulled-together pair? Tailored shorts for women give off a clean, chic aesthetic. Choose from lightweight fabrics like linen or linen-cotton blend, or opt for something more luxurious like jacquard (a heavier, structured material with a woven-right-in pattern) or Madewell's Drapeweave TENCEL™ fabric made from lyocell and linen twill.


Looking for something effortless? Step into a pair of relaxed shorts or pull-on shorts for total comfort and ease. Pull-on shorts for women have an elastic waist so you can easily slip into them. Our vintage-inspired paper bag women’s shorts have a loose fit and an elasticized high waist. For something sunny, try on a pair of pull-on shorts in airy linen or Madewell's best-selling, supersoft Lightspun double-layered cotton gauze.


Want a curve-hugging fit? High-waisted shorts hit above the belly button for a snatched look (particularly if they have our signature Magic Pockets™ in front). Style your denim high-waisted shorts with a loose popover shirt or a Madewell activewear crop top for your next outdoor concert.


When it comes to women's shorts, Madewell is famous for our Holy Grail denim shorts. Details like raw hems and distressing give you the look of vintage cutoffs without having to break out the scissors. Madewell women's shorts come in a variety of denim washes including light, dark, charcoal or vintage canvas. Choose your favorites and rotate them all summer long.
