I Crafted the Perfect Pair of Pinup Shorts

I didn't just design these shorts, I engineered them. I thought about all the things I didn't like about commercial shorts, and patternmade and tested until I was satisfied.

The Fancy Pinup Shorts have a retro feel, modelled after 1940's pinups. They’re crafted from 100% cotton medium-weight denim or twill, to hold you in and accentuate those curves. They feature a centre back seam for a clean front look, deep western-style patch pockets, and strategically placed back pockets for that perfect derriere flatter. Whether you prefer a tucked-in top or a carefree look, these high-waisted shorts are versatile, perfect for pairing with tights in winter or your favourite summer espadrilles.
