Are these shorts suitable for formal occasions?

What is the best way to care for these shorts to prevent damage?
Machine wash inside out in cold water with similar colors on a gentle cycle. Tumble dry on low or hang dry, and iron on a low setting if needed. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners.
Troubleshooting
Shorts appear to have shrunk after washing.
Avoid high heat drying. If shrinkage has occurred, try gently stretching the fabric while damp. Future washes should use cold water and low heat drying.
Wrinkles are difficult to remove.
Iron the shorts while slightly damp on a low setting, preferably inside out. Ensure the washing and drying process does not over-dry the fabric.
Color fades after a few washes.
Ensure you are washing inside out with similar colors and using a mild detergent. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying.
Zipper or button feels stiff.
Check for any fabric obstructions. If necessary, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) to the zipper teeth or a tiny bit of wax to the button mechanism.
