A basket-weave stitch gives these silky dressy shorts a rich natural texture while the tie-it-yourself bow belt makes it a cinch to create an of-the-moment high-waisted silhouette. With satin piping and a curved hem inspired by old-school sprinters' shorts and tailored pleats down the front, this pair has the wear-with-all to transition from workday meetings to nighttime tête-à-têtes. Part of J.Crew Collection. Available in select stores.
