Not flattering.

Nice material, length is fine but they are getting returned as the fit is not flattering on my stomach area and the width of the legs looks wider than in the photo.

Perfect fit

Yes, I recommend this

Perfect fit and the length is great. Linen can sometimes be a little see through, but even when wearing dark underwear, nothing shows through. Now contemplating buy them in another colour also.

No good if you have a long torso

No, I don't recommend this

I usually go for high waisted as I have a long torso and this style gives me enough length in the body, however these shorts were very short in the body and uncomfortable. Also I sized up however still too tight.

Flattering and great quality.

Yes, I recommend this

Bought in the ecru colour. They’re not too transparent, you could probably see black underwear through them but anything lighter is fine. They cut below the widest past of the thigh which makes them so flattering. Love the fact that they have belt loops which makes styling so much easier.

My favourite shorts

Yes, I recommend this

These are lovely shorts, nice quality and design and they look great on. I have bought two pairs, different colours. I tried the cream too but it just wasn’t for me. If I had any criticism it would be the back pockets which are unnecessary and I don’t like the flaps. Didn’t stop me buying them though.
