FAQs

What material are these shorts made from?

The shorts are crafted from a woven viscose-linen blend, offering comfort and breathability.

How should I style the raffia belt?

The belt is designed to be tied or fastened at the waist to define your silhouette. You can tie it in a knot or a bow, depending on your preference.

Can I wear these shorts in cooler weather?

While designed for warm weather, they can be layered with tights and a heavier knit or jacket for transitional styling in cooler temperatures.

What occasions are these shorts suitable for?

They are ideal for daytime events, casual outings, brunches, garden parties, and even holidays. Their versatile design allows for both relaxed and slightly more dressed-up styling.

How do I ensure the mirrored print lasts?

To preserve the print, always follow the care instructions: gentle cold wash, mild detergent, air dry, and low heat iron if necessary. Avoid direct sunlight during drying.

Do the shorts have functional pockets?

Yes, the shorts feature practical side pockets for everyday convenience.

Troubleshooting

Print fading after washing

Ensure washing is done on a cold setting with a mild detergent and avoid harsh scrubbing. Air dry away from direct sunlight.

Fabric feels stiff after washing

This can be common with linen blends. Try a gentle steam or low-heat iron while slightly damp. Avoid high heat drying.

Raffia belt appears dry or brittle

Gently wipe with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid saturating the raffia. Store in a dry place.

Shorts have shrunk

Viscose and linen blends can be prone to shrinkage if exposed to high heat. Try carefully stretching the garment back to shape while damp and air drying. Future washes should be on a cold cycle.
