    Smart shorts, feminine finish

    Shorts do not have to mean casual. These have the tailored look of smart trousers, with a high waist and front pleats, plus a delicate lace hem that brings a touch of romance. Tuck in a soft blouse, tie the belt into a bow and you look elegant and pulled together, ready for lunch on a terrace or a summer party. You will feel cool, polished and quietly special in them.

    A high waist and an easy leg

    The waistband sits high and flat, and the tie belt lets you knot it as snugly or loosely as you like. The pleats add a little room through the hip, so the leg falls easily without clinging. Slip your hands into the side pockets as you stroll. The lace at the hem moves softly with each step and sits comfortably against your legs, never scratchy, as you walk, sit or dance.

    Summer lunches and evening drinks

    Wear them for a long lunch in a garden restaurant, a summer birthday party or an evening drink on a rooftop terrace. They look lovely with a white blouse and sandals in the day, and with a fine knit and block heels when the sun goes down. Pack them for a city break or a holiday, where they will take you from sightseeing to supper with ease and still look fresh at the end of the day.

    Your questions about this piece

    Which size should I choose?

    Sizes run from S (UK 8) to XL (UK 14), with the EU and US equivalents in the size guide. The waist sits high and fitted, so take your usual size, or the larger one if you are between two.

    Can I wear them for an evening out?

    Yes. With a silky blouse or a fine knit and heeled sandals, the lace hem and tie belt make them smart enough for dinner or a party.

    How long does delivery take, and can I return them?

    Your order is prepared within 24 to 48 hours, then delivered in 8 to 15 days; costs and the free-delivery threshold are shown in your basket. You have 14 days from delivery to return it.
