Tiered Ruffle Lace Trim Shorts

Two deep tiers of gathered fabric fall from a shirred elastic waistband, each one edged with a fine eyelet lace that gives the hem its scalloped finish. The result sits full and short, closer to a bloomer than a tailored short, and moves with every step. The waist pulls on with no zip or button, so it sits flat under a cropped top or a swim top. Wear it with tall boots for a western-leaning look, or with sandals over a swimsuit on holiday. Lightweight and airy, cut short enough to keep cool on the hottest days.
