Now offered in two inseams, 4.5” and 7.5”.
Please note this is a general size guide, not product-specific measurements. Every woman's body is different, so fit may vary slightly depending on the style or fabric of the garment. For the most accurate fit, we recommend taking your body measurements and comparing them to the chart.
BUST
Wrap a soft measuring tape under your arms and around the fullest part of your chest. Avoid pulling the measuring tape too tightly.
Pro Tip: Keep your favorite undergarment on while you measure to get the most accurate number.
NATURAL WAIST
Stand up straight and relax your stomach, then wrap a soft measuring tape at the midway point between the bottom of your ribcage and your hip bone. Avoid pulling the measuring tape too tightly.
HIP
Stand with your feet hips width distance and flat, then wrap a soft measuring tape around the widest point of your hip.
Pro Tip: Sitting down while you take this measurement ensures accuracy and provides added comfort for the best fit.
INSEAM
Use a soft measuring tape to measure from the highest point of your inner thigh to the bottom of where the pant will hit. For instance, if the inseam is 27”, you’ll measure 27” down.
Pro Tip: Measuring with shoes on lets you see the full picture and ensures your pants fall exactly where you want them.

"I was skeptical, but there were so many great reviews about these shorts that I thought I’d give them a try. Holy Moly!!! They are incredibly comfortable and they actually fit my body well. I’ve received many compliments. I love these shorts and plan to purchase a few more in different fabrics. Time to get yours, too!"
— Gretchen M. (5/5)
"I am so confused by the FðE sizing. These run quite big but also fit oddly. They're adorable in the photos but I'm guessing there's a lot of clips in the back pulling them to lie the way they do in the photos. I bought the 6,im normally a 6-8. I've noticed a definite change lately in the way items appear in their photos v how they fit in real life that never used to happen."

"These are the most flattering shorts and the longer length was just what I was looking for. The stretch and softness of the fabric are going to make them a closet staple."
— Edith K. (5/5)
