Product Insights & Style Tips

The EDIKTED Nikki Side Stripe Shorts channel an unapologetic retro energy—think borrowed-from-the-boys gym class with a distinctly modern twist. Cut from a glossy, athletic-inspired fabric, they catch the light and move with a slinky ease, while crisp side stripes lock in that classic track-and-field mood. The fabric has a sleek finish that instantly elevates anything you throw on top, whether it’s a cropped graphic tee or a slouchy pullover.

The shorts’ elastic waistband gathers softly without pinching, giving effortless comfort and a just-right slouch at the hips. There’s enough room for freedom of movement but a close enough cut to keep things streamlined, so they land squarely between lounge and street. Easy to layer over bike shorts or tights for a more styled-up moment, they also fold small—an underrated bonus when swapping between sneakers and heeled boots, day and night. Toss in your essentials—these shorts are uncomplicated but hold their shape, even after a spin in the wash.

EDIKTED’s Nikki Shorts nod to the ever-present athleisure wave without slipping into cliché—it’s very “model off-duty,” especially when paired with high socks and vintage trainers. Track stripes have migrated from the sidelines to everyday rotation, and this pair competes with the best, at a price that keeps them cool-girl accessible.

Style Check

Aesthetics: 7/10

These shorts embrace a sporty, retro-cool vibe with their glossy finish and contrasting side stripes. The look is fresh and playful, channeling strong athleisure energy. While fun and versatile for casual, laid-back street styling, they lean more classic than avant-garde for the most adventurous trendsetters seeking eye-catching silhouettes.

Craftsmanship: 6/10

Visually, the materials appear smooth and have a slight sheen, consistent with polyester-spandex blends. The elastic waist looks secure, and stitching at the hem and side stripes seems even, though details are minimal. No glaring flaws, but finishes and construction feel functional rather than exceptionally elevated or luxurious.

Affordability: $$$$

The cost aligns well with what’s visible—trendy, easy-to-style shorts that can be dressed up or down for fashion-forward casual looks. The playful design and decent fabrication make them accessible for the cool-girl audience, delivering solid value for updates to an off-duty wardrobe without overspending.

Everyone’s Talking About The Babydoll Dress

Leave it to the internet to spiral over Olivia Rodrigo wearing another babydoll dress in her latest music video. While critics call the silhouette infantile, we see it differently: it’s a playful nod to the ’60s and ’70s, when babydoll dresses were everywhere. Controversy aside, Olivia may be ahead of the curve as the silhouette is shaping up to be a defining summer trend. The modern version carries all the charming details: puff sleeves, lace trim, empire waists, ditsy florals. Styled right, the look feels less costume-like and far more romantic. Mary Jane flats lean into the retro vibe, while a structured handbag adds modern balance. Don’t let naysayers convince you otherwise.

Pull-On Shorts Are This Summer’s Ultimate Staple

Track pants owned the off-duty uniform all fall and winter – but there’s a warm-weather version taking over. Pull-on shorts, also known as track shorts, are bringing that effortless energy this summer. Bold shades like racing red are emerging as a favorite, though neutral versions feel just as elevated and versatile. For the perfect summertime outfit, pair your pull-on shorts with a striped polo or rugby-inspired top, then finish with athletic socks and classic boat shoes or loafers. The sporty-prep pairing works whether you’re strolling through the Hamptons or grabbing an iced coffee in LA.

Gen Z Is Bringing Back Vintage Athleisure

The younger generation of fashion lovers are trading in their perfectly matched yoga sets for vintage athleisure. At this point, the Y2K archive is less a reference point and more a blueprint. And this latest revival is already sticking. To visualize it, picture Sarah Jessica Parker in a color-blocked tank, capris, and oversized sunglasses, or Cameron Diaz in foldover pants and a baby tee. That’s exactly the energy fueling this moment. While diehards are hitting thrift stores in search of authentic pieces, you don’t have to dig through racks to get the look. Brands are already catching on, reissuing vintage-inspired separates like colorful micro shorts, low-rise capris, layered tanks, and more. Scroll on to shop the pieces bringing vintage athleisure back into rotation.
