Product Insights
Lanvin’s Contrasting Stitching Pleated Short is a 100% cotton crepe tailored short in speckled cream whose crinkle comes from high-twist yarn and woven crepe texture rather than a print; the cloth breathes and gives slightly across the body despite having no elastane. Two sewn front pleats press toward the pockets for a flat tailored front, caramel topstitching carries a Lanvin house hallmark still used on current pieces, and the straight leg runs roughly uniform from thigh to hem instead of tapering. Pocketing follows the standard tailored split—front piped slant pockets set into a finished edge and a single sewn-on back patch pocket. Care is professional cleaning only. Sold at 199.95 CAD in even sizes 30–36 at 2-inch steps with no large-size surcharge, the shorts are currently out of stock; the fit is the main tradeoff, since 31 and 33 shoppers must round up or down and waist 30 or 36 has no adjacent size if the fit misses. The matching jacket, sold separately under SKU 7704-1366128, completes a full cream suit; the jacket should hem near the hip bone, and the flat-front pleats keep the shorts sleek beneath it.
