Maricela Short

These mid-weight crepe shorts feature a sharp, high-waisted cut that anchors the silhouette with a structural, paper-bag inspired waistband. The double-pleated front adds volume to the thigh, creating a clean contrast against the fitted, belted midsection. It is a calculated take on resort tailoring, trading traditional linen for a dense, matte crepe that holds its shape through a full day of movement.

Safety Rating: Lowest

Analysis: This garment is constructed primarily from polyester, a petroleum-based synthetic fiber known for low breathability and poor moisture management. The inclusion of elastane further complicates the material profile, as these plastic-derived fibers can trap heat against the skin and contribute to microplastic shedding.
