The high-rise cut and polished elastic waistband make them equally at home on a casual day out as paired with a blazer for a more pulled-together look. The 3.5" inseam keeps things cool and comfortable without sacrificing coverage, making them a natural choice for everyday warm-weather wear.

The clean, high-rise silhouette pairs naturally with a tucked-in relaxed tee or a fitted tank for a balanced, modern bohemian look. The rich Mallard Blue tone works beautifully with warm neutrals like cream, tan, and camel, as well as earthy tones and soft whites. Try them with a linen button-down tied at the waist for a perfectly undone finish, or dress them up with a sleek fitted top and sandals for an easy evening-out look.
Materials & Care
Crafted from Varley's signature DoubleSoft® fabric — an 81% viscose, 15% polyester, and 4% elastane blend — these shorts offer a smooth, lightweight drape with just enough two-way stretch for all-day comfort. To keep the fabric looking its best, machine wash cool with similar colors, turning the shorts inside out before washing. Dry flat and avoid tumble drying, bleaching, dry cleaning, or high-heat ironing — cool iron only if needed, and remove promptly from the washer to help the shorts hold their shape.
Why You'll Love It
The 13" front rise sits at the natural waist, creating a flattering, secure fit that stays in place throughout the day. DoubleSoft® fabric delivers a lightweight, fluid feel with gentle stretch — no stiffness, no restriction. The sleek elastic waistband keeps the silhouette smooth and streamlined, so these shorts dress up or down with ease.
