Zimmermann Aster Relaxed Fit Silk Shorts

Product Insights & Style Tips

The Zimmermann Aster Relaxed Fit Silk Shorts channel peak summer escapism—airy, romantic, and radiating that globe-trotting, poolside-luxe spirit the label has perfected. Cut in featherlight habutai silk, every movement is effortless and fluid, while a Persian floral border print ups the visual impact with subtle, painterly decadence. Long drawcords tipped in bead-adorned wooden spheres draw the eye and nod to Zimmermann’s signature obsession with detail, turning a simple silhouette into something artful and intricate.

The softly structured elastic waistband sits comfortably without gripping, letting the silk drape and billow with your body’s rhythm. Wide legs encourage lazy lounging and breezy commutes alike, while the slip pockets at the side are seamlessly integrated for a barely-there feel—just spacious enough to stow a room key, lipstick, or whatever your sunlit afternoon demands. These shorts stand on their own with a swingy camp shirt or layered over a bikini, but slide easily under an oversized linen blazer for dialed-up dinners. Easily transitioning from sun-chasing mornings to balmy evenings, the Aster shorts echo Zimmermann’s relaxed, jet-set take on resort dressing.

With its floaty silhouette and artisanal accents, this piece plays into the ongoing renaissance of decadent loungewear—where glamour collides with undone ease. It’s a masterclass in Australian coastal cool, and unmistakably Zimmermann from every angle.
