Troubleshooting
Fabric appears wrinkled
Use a garment steamer to gently remove creases. Avoid high heat from a traditional iron which can damage the structured finish.
Waist feels slightly tight
Ensure the shorts are pulled up correctly to sit on the narrowest part of the mid-rise waist. If issues persist, consider a professional tailor for minor adjustments.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Karen Millen shorts in peak condition, always check the internal care label for specific washing instructions. Due to the nature of linen, it is highly recommended to steam the fabric rather than using a traditional iron to remove creases. When storing, hang the shorts to maintain the pleats and the structured hem band. They are highly compatible with various footwear, including slides for daytime or heeled sandals for evening wear. Ensure you select your standard UK dress size for the best fit at the mid-rise waist.
