Faux Leather Tailored Shorts

Tailored pleat-front detailing gives these shorts a sharp, structured finish that sits cleanly from the waistband down. The PU fabric carries a soft drape and cool handfeel, skimming the body without clinging - it moves more like a woven than a stiff faux leather. High-rise waistband with a wide waistband panel that sits flat and smooth against the body, no gaping. The hem falls at a flattering mid-thigh length - long enough to layer over tights, short enough to keep the look night-ready. Machine washable - practical for a piece that looks this dressed-up. These sit naturally alongside the sharper end of your going-out wardrobe - the pieces that read polished without trying too hard. The pleat front means they pair just as well with a fitted halterneck bodysuit, as the model demonstrates here, as they do with an oversized blazer thrown on top for the journey there. Tights underneath extend the wear into cooler nights, and a strappy heel or pointed ankle boot both land well with the tailored silhouette. For drinks with friends or a night out, these shorts do the heavy lifting - tuck in a satin cami or a sleek crop and let the structured front panel take centre stage. They're the kind of piece that makes a simple top look considered rather than last-minute.
