Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Karen Millen Tailored City Shorts remain in pristine condition, adhere to the following care guidelines:

  1. Storage: Always hang the shorts on a proper garment hanger to preserve the pressed front pleats.
  2. Cleaning: Due to the linen construction, dry cleaning is recommended to prevent shrinkage and fabric distortion. If washing at home, use a delicate cycle with cold water and avoid vigorous agitation.
  3. Ironing: Iron while slightly damp or use a garment steamer to smooth out creases effectively without damaging the fabric fibers.
  4. Styling Compatibility: These shorts pair exceptionally well with structured blazers, silk tops, and classic leather belts for a coordinated look.
