Project X Paris Candide Idylle Shorts Black
The Candide Idylle line from Project X Paris is closer to vacation wear than to training gear. These shorts have a black floral motif crocheted over a light base and go with a shirt in the same pattern.
What is an openwork pattern?
The motif isn't printed on the fabric but crocheted into it, leaving small open spaces between the flowers. Air can pass through them. You see and feel the difference right away when you hold the fabric up to the light. Project X Paris lists the composition as 50 percent polyester, 30 percent viscose and 20 percent ramie, a flax-like fiber that gives the fabric some body.
Why do they have a zipper and belt loops?
These aren't sports shorts with an elastic waistband. They have a real closure with a zipper and a button, belt loops all around and slant pockets at the sides. That makes them wear more like regular shorts and less like sportswear.
How short are they?
The leg ends above the knee and the cut is loose, so there's air between the fabric and your leg. Project X Paris lists this model as a loose fit. In the photo, they're worn with white sneakers and high socks, with the matching shirt on top.
Only XS and S left
Only the two smallest sizes of these shorts are still on the rack. They can be machine washed at up to 30°C, as the brand specifies. The crocheted fabric is more delicate than regular jersey, so put them in a laundry bag and keep them out of the dryer. Check the size guide to find your size.
We usually display these shorts with the matching button-up shirt, because together they make a set and on their own they’re a standout pair of shorts. If the pattern feels like a lot, wear them with a plain black shirt on top.
Looking for something airy for a warm day? There’s open space left between the crocheted flowers.
Want shorts with a real closure? They have a zipper, a button and belt loops.
Do you wear size XS or S? Those two are still in stock.
Going on vacation? There’s a button-up shirt with the same pattern to go with them.
Planning to work out in these? These shorts have no elastic waistband; for training, grab athletic shorts from Project X Paris.
Want size M or larger? Only XS and S of this model are on the rack.
Looking for shorts that can handle rough work? Crocheted fabric snags easily; in that case, choose the work pants from Service Works.
Check the Project X Paris size guide to find the right size.
The brand lists this model as a loose fit: roomy, with a leg that ends above the knee.
Two sizes are left, XS and S.
Acrylic • Polyester
Wash the shorts in a laundry bag at a maximum of 30 degrees, as the brand specifies.
Keep them out of the dryer; crocheted fabric gets pulled out of shape in there.
Lay them flat to dry.
