Le Short Limao Checked High-Rise Woven Shorts

Simon Porte Jacquemus is departing his native South of France this season and jetting off to O’ahu, Hawai’I for his latest collection, Le Splash. The Le Short Limao shorts are primed for the beach, anywhere you are in the world; they’re whipped up in a lightweight fabric to keep you cool and shaped to a leg-lengthening, retro silhouette that’s swathed in a picnic-inspired checked motif. Pull them on with the matching top and hit the sand.

• 57% viscose, 43% silk; body lining 97% cotton, 3% elastane

Essentially pared back and minimalist, self-taught French designer Simon Porte Jacquemus pairs tradition and modernity with playful irreverence. Classic references meet with unexpected proportions and distinctive details, in collections that are youthful, fresh, yet with a timeless elegance.
