FAQs

What material are these shorts made from?

These shorts are made from 100% cotton, offering comfort and breathability.

How should I determine my size?

Refer to the size guide provided by Karen Millen, paying close attention to the UK dress size and waist measurements. The model in the description wears a UK size 8.

Can these shorts be worn for formal occasions?

While versatile, these shorts are best suited for smart casual or elevated daytime looks rather than strictly formal events. They can be styled up with appropriate tops and accessories.

How do I care for the metallic accent buttons?

When washing, use a gentle cycle and cold water. It is advisable to iron around the buttons on a medium setting to prevent any damage or discoloration to the metallic finish.

What is the length of the shorts?

The shorts have a versatile length of 38cm.

Are there other colors available?

This specific product description is for the 'Ivory' color. Please check available listings for other color options if offered by the brand.

How would you describe the fit of these shorts?

They are designed with a tailored mid-rise fit, featuring a clean-cut silhouette that offers a flattering shape.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel too tight after washing.

Cotton can sometimes shrink slightly. If the fit is too snug, try gently stretching the waistband while the shorts are damp. Avoid high heat drying in the future.

Decorative buttons have become loose.

Carefully re-secure the buttons using a needle and thread. Use a thread color that matches the button or fabric for a discreet repair.

Fabric appears dull after several washes.

Ensure you are washing with cold water and using a mild detergent. Avoid excessive use of harsh chemicals or high heat during washing and drying.
