Ladies Lederhosen

Buy Ladies Lederhosen at Dirndl.com

For a long time, lederhosen were seen as menswear. Today, traditional lederhosen for women are a natural part of Bavarian fashion: not a passing trend, but a confident alternative to the dirndl. In our collection you will find women's lederhosen from brands such as Krüger, Spieth & Wensky and Edelnice: short lederhosen for the Wiesn and knee-length styles with traditional character. The main colours are brown and light brown, and a few styles come in black. Embroidery in rose, pink or lilac adds feminine accents, and the designs and details differ from pair to pair.

Material and Quality: Genuine Leather with Character

Our women's lederhosen are made of genuine leather, mostly calfskin or goatskin. Calfskin is sturdy and keeps its shape for a long time. Goatskin is softer and lighter and very comfortable to wear. Both adapt to your body over time and develop their own character as you wear them. For high-quality lederhosen that last for many years, genuine leather is the right choice. You can tell the quality by the details: clean seams, dense embroidery and firmly sewn buttons. If you prefer not to wear leather, the Recke linen trousers give you the lederhosen look in breathable linen.

Fit and Sizes: How Lederhosen Should Fit

Lederhosen fit best close to the body without pinching. Genuine leather gives a little as you wear it, yet many of our styles run small. In that case the product page shows a fit note: if it says “Runs small”, choose one size up if in doubt. On some styles you adjust the waistband at the back with leather laces, and braces are included. Most styles come in sizes 32 to 38, and we stock the Sophie lederhosen in brown in every size from 32 to 50.

Short or Knee-Length: Choosing the Length

Short lederhosen end at the thigh, look sporty and stylish and are especially comfortable in summer and in the beer tent. Knee-length lederhosen end just below the knee and have a more classic, calmer style. They suit occasions where you want to look a little more elegant. Whatever your style, you will find the right pair here, from the traditional Bavarian look to a relaxed outfit for the city.

How to Style Women's Lederhosen: Three Outfits

• Classic: Lederhosen with a white tracht blouse, traditional socks and Haferl shoes. A bodice accentuates the waist and gives the look a feminine silhouette.
• Modern: Lederhosen with a simple shirt or satin top and sneakers, a fashionable combination for the city and the beer garden.
• Autumn and winter: Lederhosen with tights, a long-sleeved blouse and a warm traditional jacket on top.

The blouse decides how festive your outfit looks. You will find matching styles among our tracht blouses, together with bodices, traditional jackets and traditional shoes for women. This makes lederhosen a versatile piece for many combinations.

Women's Lederhosen for the Wiesn, Kirchweih and Everyday

At Oktoberfest and any other folk festival, short lederhosen are perfect because they give you plenty of freedom of movement. For Kirchweih, the alpine cattle drive or a traditional parade, the knee-length style with a fine blouse is a good fit. In everyday life, worn with a shirt and sneakers, they become a fashionable eye-catcher. For very formal occasions such as attending a wedding as a guest, the dirndl is usually the better choice.

You will find all lederhosen for women, men and children in the lederhosen overview, and the range for men under men's lederhosen. Our full range of traditional wear for women is in the women's collection.
