Fabric & Feel
Crafted from a 95% Polyester + 5% Elastane checkered texture blend — polyester provides a lightweight, easy-care, wrinkle-resistant quality, while elastane provides high stretch for a comfortable, flattering fit across both the tee and shorts. The checkered texture adds a distinctive, tactile quality that elevates the fabric beyond a standard jersey.
- 95% Polyester: Lightweight, easy-care, wrinkle-resistant, quick-drying, colour-retaining
- 5% Elastane: High stretch for a comfortable, flattering fit across both pieces
- Checkered texture: Distinctive, modern tactile texture that adds a fashion-forward quality
- High elasticity: True to size recommended; the high stretch accommodates a range of sizes
- Care note: Machine wash cold on gentle cycle with similar colours; hang to dry or tumble dry low; cool iron if needed; do not bleach; wash inside out to preserve the checkered texture
How to Style It
Summer / Beach: Wear this co-ord set as a complete outfit with flat sandals and a tote bag for a relaxed, effortless summer look. According to Vogue UK's guide to wearing matching sets, co-ords work best styled with minimal accessories to let the coordinated fabric do the talking. Browse our co-ord outfits collection for more styles.
Holiday / Vacation: Style with espadrilles and a straw hat for a considered, holiday-ready look. The lightweight polyester-elastane blend is genuinely practical for travel — wrinkle-resistant and quick-drying. The three colourways — Pale Chestnut, Light Green, and Sachet Pink — all work beautifully in a holiday setting.
Casual / Everyday: Wear with clean white trainers and a crossbody bag for a relaxed, everyday casual look. Cosmopolitan UK's guide to styling high-waisted shorts recommends tucking in a fitted top to define the waist — the relaxed tee in this co-ord is designed to sit perfectly at the high waist for exactly this effect.

- Wash inside out — protect the checkered texture fabric

- Hang to dry or tumble dry low — preserve the elastane stretch and checkered texture
- Cool iron if needed — polyester can be ironed on a cool setting; do not iron directly on textured areas
