Dries Van Noten High-rise coated cotton-blend shorts

Reflecting Dries Van Noten's mastery of textiles, these shorts offer a modern reinterpretation of a wardrobe staple. Their defining feature is a luminous coated finish, which lends a sophisticated edge to the relaxed, high-rise silhouette, making them an adaptable foundation for both day and evening ensembles.

The art of the detail

Rendered in a deep black hue, these shorts are defined by their unique texture. Crafted from cotton, the fabric is treated with a special coating that imparts a subtle sheen and a smooth, structured feel. The high-rise silhouette is designed for comfort and ease, featuring a gathered waist complete with an elasticated band and a refined drawstring. The wide-leg cut ensures a fluid and flattering line, exemplifying the designer's focus on creating wearable yet impactful garments. This piece showcases an innovative approach to everyday materials.

How to wear

Style these shorts with a fine-gauge knit top and classic loafers for a polished look appropriate for city afternoons. The textural play of the coated finish pairs exceptionally well with soft wools or crisp poplins. For an evening occasion, elevate the ensemble with a silk camisole, a tailored blazer, and heeled sandals. The shorts' versatile design allows them to anchor a range of outfits, from minimalist daytime looks to more structured evening attire. Their unique character adds a point of interest to any wardrobe, ensuring a memorable impression in professional or social settings.
