Shorts that look a bit like a skirt

I’m looking for some knee length shorts, natural fabrics if possible, that are full so look a bit like a skirt.
I got some from Next a while back that are perfect, but they don’t have anything similar at the moment.

Sounds like you're after culottes like I used to wear at Brownies

Yes, like this. They don’t seem to get called culottes anymore.

Years ago they used to make shorts out of a material that had about 3-4 inches of elastic at the top. They had pockets in and were cut big like a skirt. I used to live in them. They were cheap to buy and easy to wash.
Oh for the good old days !
