"Garconne" is the term that the French used for flapper style in the 1920's - it literally means "boy", but with a feminine suffix. Fashioned from a lovely warm brown lightweight silk jacquard and stitched with silk thread, these tap shorts bestow all the best elements of Deco lingerie styling on a contemporary cut. Featuring a bias-cut silhouette, relaxed fit, French seaming and self fabric drawstring, these shorts are perfect for a variety of body types. The crowning glory of the Garconne Tap Shorts, though, is their meticulously applied vintage insertion lace. The fabric behind the lace is cut away, making way for a irresistible sheerness and subtle sensuality.

What's extra special about Alma? These particular shorts feature a cheeky double chevron detail right on the rear!

VITALS:

WAIST - 37" maximum (pulls smaller with drawstring. Please Note: This is also the maximum low hip/butt measurement that will fit these shorts)
HIP - 42" maximum
LEG SWEEP - 26"
CENTER FRONT - 11" to crotch seam
CENTER BACK - 12.5" to crotch seam

The cut of these shorts is generous. They are intended to fit a size small, but could also work for a size medium with less of a blouson effect.

CARE:

Please keep in mind that vintage lace and silk fabric lend a delicacy to this piece that cause it to require some extra special TLC. While dry cleaning is recommended, if you must wash these Garconne Tap Shorts, be sure to do so in cold water by hand with a delicate wash like Forever New. Iron on silk setting with steam.
