FAQs
Can I machine wash these silk shorts?
It is generally recommended to hand wash or dry clean silk to preserve the fabric's quality, though some machines have a delicate silk cycle that may be used with extreme caution.
Do these shorts run true to size?
The Lilysilk high-rise shorts are designed with a regular fit; however, always refer to the specific size guide for a UK 16 to ensure the best personal fit.
How should I store them?
Store them flat or on a padded hanger in a cool, dark environment to keep the silk fibers healthy and prevent damage.
Are they suitable for formal occasions?
Yes, the sophisticated cut and high-quality silk finish make these shorts appropriate for dressier casual occasions when styled correctly.
Does the elastic waistband lose its elasticity over time?
By following proper care and cleaning instructions and avoiding extreme heat, you can significantly extend the lifespan and elasticity of the waistband.
Troubleshooting
Stubborn wrinkles after storage
Use a steamer on a low heat setting from a safe distance, or hang the garment in a steamy bathroom to gently release creases.
Fabric snagging or catching
Avoid wearing jewelry or accessories with sharp edges that can pull the silk fibers. Use caution around rough surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Lilysilk shorts, professional dry cleaning is often the safest route for silk garments. If washing at home, use a pH-neutral liquid detergent specifically formulated for silk in cool water. Avoid harsh agitation and never use bleach. When drying, lay the shorts flat on a clean towel away from direct sunlight to prevent fiber degradation and color fading. Keep them stored in a cool, dry place, ideally on a padded hanger to maintain the shape of the waistband.
