The Harlow
Beautiful and seductive, these slinky silk lounging shorts are reminiscent of the Silver Screen Queen Jean Harlow. Made from 100% silk with organza embellishments, roam your home in comfort and class.
The Harlow shorts are designed with a comfortable elastic waist and wide leg openings. The decorative tie on the waist adds a cute touch to a rather sultry pair of shorts. Finished with French Seams, these silk bottoms are meant to make you the fanciest attendee at the slumber party.
Color
Slightly off white, the 100% silk proves to have an exquisite luster and somewhat crinkled texture. The decorative tie and side inserts play harmoneously together elevating the look to a vintage inspired dream.
Fit Notes
The fitting of The Harlow shorts runs a tad small to traditional, conventional sizing. Sitting above the belly button, and fitted to the hips, the leg hole does open a bit wider to flow off of the body. The fabric caresses the rear, and shows quite a bit of cheek depending on the anotomy of your backside. Although there is a tie front on the waistband, it does not change the size of the garment and is there merely for decoration. Because of garment hugs the body from the waist to the top of the hip, you may need to size up in order for the waist to stretch over the circumferance of your hips.
Fabric Notes
The 100% pure Vietnam silk used is medium-bodied with a lovely drape. There is no stretch in the fabric itself, and due to the nature of the color of the fabric, some dark colors worn underneath might be seen through the garment. Purchased as deadstock fabric, The Harlow saved this amazing fabric from potentioally ending up in a landfill (YAY!). The decorative items on the garment are 100% Polyester Organza from Turkey, also purchased as deadstock fabric (double YAY!).
