Often imitated, never replicated — wear them and see why

The leg-baring version of the original goes-with-everything trouser, these are high-waisted shorts with a relaxed fit and front knife pleats. They’re made with Crepette™ — our one-of-a-kind crepe fabric beloved for its subtle texture, breezy drape and the fact that it basically never wrinkles. It’s sourced from an innovative Japanese mill.

Love, Love, Love!
This short is one of my favourite purchases from Aritzia.
Very fluttering and stylish! I wear it everywhere. It can dress down and dress up. It’s a quiet luxury! I got size 2. It’s slightly tightened on the waist but it’s still very comfortable and I wish I could get more other colours.

Perfect Shorts!
I love the style of these shorts. The waist sits at my bellybutton and the length hits just below my knee. The fabric is amazing. No wrinkling and has a nice drape. I ordered these in an 8 which is the same size I ordered for the effortless skirt. I find the waist on these fit a slight bit tighter than the skirt but not enough to need to size up. I love that I can wear these casually or dress them up. I have them in black and hummus beige and will be buying the birch color as well. I pair mine with the revel tanks , the sinch smooth tees and the attire vests.

Very high waisted and an odd length
Typical Artizia re quality, ie, a bit over priced, but it seems like a great style. This item will look great on the right person, but didn’t wow me. I purchased the light cream because it was dressy, but a bit sheer even though a fairly heavy weight. I returned it but may consider buying it on sale.
