FAQs

What material are these shorts made from?

These shorts are crafted from durable, structured polyester.

Does the waist run true to size?

The shorts are designed with a high-rise fit; it is recommended to consult the size guide for a UK size 6 to ensure the best fit for your waist measurement.

Are the pockets deep enough for a smartphone?

The side pockets are designed for aesthetic subtlety and are intended for small items; they may not securely hold large modern smartphones.

Can I wear these for a formal event?

Yes, when paired with a formal blazer and refined footwear, these shorts provide a polished, smart-casual aesthetic suitable for many social occasions.

How should I store these to prevent creases?

Hang them vertically using a proper trouser hanger to allow the fabric to drape naturally.

Troubleshooting

Shorts appear wrinkled after storage

Use a garment steamer on a low setting. Avoid direct contact with a hot iron, as this may damage the polyester fabric.

Pleats losing their sharpness

Take the garment to a professional cleaner and request a 'press' to restore the structural pleats.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated and professional aesthetic
  • Maintains shape well due to structured fabric
  • High-rise fit is versatile for different body types
  • Functional pockets integrated into the seamless design

Cons

  • Polyester material may feel less breathable in extreme heat
  • Mid-thigh length may not suit all professional dress codes
  • Requires dry cleaning or careful washing to maintain pleats

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your Karen Millen Tailored City Shorts in pristine condition, follow these care guidelines:

  • Cleaning: Due to the tailored pleats and structured polyester finish, professional dry cleaning is recommended to preserve the shape and sharpness of the garment.
  • Storage: Hang the shorts using a skirt or trouser hanger that clamps at the waist. This prevents the fabric from creasing and keeps the pleats aligned.
  • Styling Compatibility: The high-rise waist is designed to work best with shirts tucked in to emphasize the tailored silhouette. For a more casual look, use a light silk camisole tucked in, topped with a lightweight blazer.
