According to historical data, the first shorts appeared in the beginning of the nineteenth century, representing free-cut pants, the length of which was just below the knee. Then such shorts were exclusively men's wardrobe attribute and golfers' favorite clothing.

Among the many models of shorts, rapidly appearing in the fashion world, classic shorts were of particular importance, they began their existence by becoming part of the clothes of athletes and pioneers.
And modern couturiers have led to the fact that shorts can even be considered part of a classic business suit, if they have a restrained length and sophisticated cut, and do not look vulgar.

The most common material used to make classic shorts is costume fabric. Often, these shorts have a clear ironed arrows and small cuffs, adding a touch of coquetry to a strict model.

What to wear?
Many may have a characteristic question: what to wear with classic women's shorts? And indeed, at first glance, drawing up an image with a given wardrobe attribute may seem like one of the most difficult tasks. But everything is quite simple, the main thing is to follow some rules:
- If the shorts are short, you should choose a more restrained and closed top;
- For elongated knee shorts, you can pick up a more open top, with a shallow neckline;
- It is not necessary to combine short classic shorts with vulgar, challenging shoes.
Let us consider in more detail what things best fit classic shorts.
Classic black shorts are perfect for light-colored blouses, for example, cream, white, ivory or light lemon shades. Combining short classic shorts (with or without cuffs) and a discreet blouse with a collar under the throat, you can get a very beautiful and sophisticated look in a business style.
Classic often dictates the rules, part of which is the presence of a jacket, blazer or jacket. Classic shorts can be easily combined with any of these options. In addition, this model of shorts goes well with outerwear, whether it's a light raincoat, a warm coat, or even a cheeky leather jacket.
Knee-length shorts can also be very well combined with all of the above items, but they look most harmonious with a classic white cotton fabric shirt. This outfit will be suitable for any office dress code.
Elongated shorts allow a choice of a more informal top, for example, lightweight tops from flowing fabric, with a shallow neckline.Or restrained models of T-shirts and T-shirts in everyday style, since sports details will simplify the image, bringing disharmony into it.
In choosing shoes should also stick to more restrained models. Perfectly suited for shoes pumps on any heel: high, medium or low heel - in any case, this model will look great with shorts.
Perhaps a combination of shorts with high-heeled shoes with a hidden platform, only if the shorts are knee-length or slightly lower. In any other cases, the image will turn out to be vulgar and depraved, despite the presence of an element of the classics.
In addition, any neat shoes with an average heel or elegant ballet flats with a rounded and slightly pointed tip fit the shorts. It is necessary to make sure that the shoes fit the color range of the whole image, otherwise it will turn out tasteless and inappropriate.
