These splendid pleated shorts are adapted from an original and a pattern and they are just fabulous!

Shorts are pleated throughout (3 on each side - including the centre front gusset pleat) and are the forerunner design favoured for girls' school gym shorts - nostalgic and sweet, these shorts are a perfect addition to any 30s and 40s vintage fan wardrobe and great for summer! We love them with navy and ivory.

These fit on the natural waist and have a single shell button fastening with a short zip.

Key features:-

- 4 pleats
- top sticthing detail
- side zip & shell button
- deep gusset

These are a mid weight fabric, warm but breatheable. Rayon/poly mix with a little bit of spandex for stretch, hand wash recommended.

These have been painstakingly researched and are adapted from an original 1930s pattern with further inspiration taken from an original pair of ladies tennis shorts. 

Length: approx 43cm to 48cm relating to size *longer on higher sizes

These shorts are elegant and so comfortable at the same time.

I love this color and also have the bottle green and am about to get the black because they’re that amazing!

Great fabric

I just love these shorts. I got a UK8 (waist around 67cm, hips around 99cm), and just like the other colours they fit beautifully. The length is perfect an prevents any chaffing from happening, and at the same time the fabric doesn't "get ruched up" in the thigh areaa when walking (and I have thick tighs, so this is a requirement everytime I buy shorts!). I really really love this fabric, it doesn't need ironing, it's very fresh and breathable, and it's very easy to mantain and care for. I have them in every colour they released (except the linen ones), and in all of them I wear a UK8, so I would say the sizing is pretty consistent (at least for my measurements). I hope they release them in a dark ochre colour in the future because these would look stunning! I even bought one for my sisters and they don't want to wear any other shorts ever.

Effortlessly stunning skirt

comfortable to wear and all the lovely cascading stays perfect even after washing due to being sewn into place. Get so many compliments every time I wear it!
