A high waisted denim short creates the most flattering and most contemporary summer proportion available in the denim shorts category because the high waist elongates the leg and creates a silhouette that works with every summer top from crop to oversized.

A quality high waisted denim short in the right wash worn with a simple summer top reads as a specifically contemporary and individually considered summer casual choice. These are the high waisted denim shorts worth getting out because the flattering proportion and the quality construction earn consistent summer wearing rather than the high waisted denim short being a summer purchase that disappoints in the wearing.
