The Best Shorts to Wear Under Your Dresses and Skirts

Whether you're wearing a short, midlength, or floor-length skirt, look for light-to-moderate compression that won't add bulk. For transitional months, search for a thicker fabric that acts as a base layer to keep you warm on cooler days. Grab a tape measure, and specify the length of your skirt against the short — unless, of course, you feel comfortable trimming your shorts at home.
