Perfect Shorts!

a year ago
When you live in Florida, shorts are a very important part of your wardrobe. Finding a stylish pair, when you are nearly 70, that has an inseam longer than 2-4 inches, is like going on a treasure hunt! Thank you, Lily for these shorts that are a perfect find! Perfect fit, perfect length and beautiful pattern!

This was bought a month ago. I usually get 00 size and it fits perfectly. However, this runs large in that size.

Excellent Fit!

a year ago
The fit on these is the best of any Lilly shorts I’ve bought. I’m tiny so the waist in many bottoms is usually a bit too loose but these fit like a glove. Length nice as not too short. Keep making this style!

Very cute Shorts

a year ago
I sized up from a 6 to an 8 and they fit but the waist fabric inside the shorts bothers my abdomen (I had a an intestinal resection and anything touching the scar hurts after 8 months) So I am returning. If I ordered size larger it would like I was wearing a paper bags. I gave the product 5 stars b/c they look super cute for fall in Florida, especially with an Elsa top. I wish they came mid- waist. They do run small so I am putting 'runs small' b/c I did have to size up.

Love the Gretchen shorts

a year ago
I love these shorts. I was worried they would fit like the high rise Callahan shorts made last year, but the leg is a little more loose like the buttercup shorts. The length is not too short but short enough to look in style for those of us who do not want to look like teenagers! Please make more solid colors!

Beautiful print, great fit!

a year ago
Bought these shorts last month for a cruise and the fit is perfect and the print fantastic (Aegean Navy Calypso Coast). I like the fit so much, I bought it in other prints! South Florida is hot all year round and these shorts can be dressed up or down. I am 5’6”, 133 lbs and I ordered a size 4, which is my regular size on Lilly shorts.

Classy and comfy

These shorts are a perfect fit. I love they are higher waisted and still long enough. The material is comfortable to wear all day, just a little stretch but they hold up and don’t get wrinkled after a long day of wearing!

Great style and fit, BUT . . .

I love these shorts! They fit great and the material is very nice. BUT, WHY does every single LP print have to be NEON?! It’s not 1984 and I’m not in middle school. I really would love some non-neon LP shorts.

Simply Fine!

2 years ago
My first pair of Lilly Pulitzer shorts!! These did not disappoint!! A fine quality fabric, fun pattern, & fit true to size! I paired these shorts w/Lilly's Sea View linen shirts! I added a knot at the bottom for a fun look! For reference, my shorts are a size 2, which I normally wear in the real world. The linen shirt is an XS, which is the size I can wear out in the real world, but I think a size small would've fit better in the bust. For reference, I'm 5'2".. 125 lbs.. and wear a 32DDD in bra size...

Back in shorts

2 years ago
I ordered a pair of black Buttercup shorts earlier and liked them so much I ordered these. The are comfortable thanks to the stretch. The 5 in inseams are a good length for my short frame. I am glad I got them when I did. You are out of my size. My advice is if you see something you really like get it rather to wait for the sales. Many of the standard sizes go fast.If you don't tan get a self tanner. I look slimmer in these shorts and a tee shirt or dressier shirt then a summer dress right now.

Love the shirts but the color is a true navy blue not a brighter blue as shown in the picture. Also I found it runs a little small at the waist.

Love the high rise!

Bought these in navy a couple weeks ago and by far my favorite Lilly shorts! I'm a huge fan of the high-rise, they look great with a cute belt and dressy top. Please make more! Would also love to see some more solid colors to wear with my Lilly pattern tops! True to size - I purchased a size 2 (for reference I have a 24 inch waist and 36 inch hips)

Bring more colors in Callahan High Rise!

Love this style. It fits great and true to size. Easy to dress up a bit with belt and nice top as it is to be active and dress down. Disappointed that one of the colors sold out in my size quickly - was only able to purchase one of two colors offered. Hope it comes back soon in other colors/patterns!

Pattern “Multi Tiny Garden” is very flattering

3 years ago
I am in love with these shorts. I like the high rise and the inseam. There is not much stretch to them so I would advise purchasing online only if you know your size in these type of shorts. I normally wear a size 8 in regular Callahan shorts but had to get these in a size 10 for proper fit. I think what I am impressed with the most is the pattern “multi tiny garden.” I am almost as obsessed with it as with the pattern “catch the wave.” The tiny flowers are great for us thick athletic or curvy ladies. I find the big flowers to make me look bigger than I am. Overall, the fit, the pattern, it all is just right. I got the Luxletic skort in the same pattern and could not be happier. Highly Recommend!!!
