Pleasantly suprised

Yes, I recommend this

I really was not sure about ordering these shorts but decided to give it a go and try some shorts for a change. I am really glad that I did. The denim is of good quality and soft so the pleats fall softly and look good. Comfortable fit as well

Come up small

No, I don't recommend this

Really nice shorts but come up so small. I am normally a size 16 I ordered a size 18 and can’t get them done up, sometimes M&S sizing is all over the place.

Stylish cut

Love the cut of these shorts - the perfect length. Comfortable too! Unfortunately the lovely indigo colour faded quite significantly in the first wash. A bit disappointing but I do still wear and like them.

Smart but casual.

No, I don't recommend this

The shorts are very comfortable and could be worn either day or night. However I had a problem with the zip which split in half. Returned them and bought another pair so hoping that these are alright.

Yes, I recommend this

Liked them and kept them but not as flattering as other shorts from M&S as bulky where pleats are at waist

Look great!

Yes, I recommend this

I bought these for my recent holiday and was worried about the material being too heavy and thick. They are light and airy. I had a few compliments as well! Good quality material and a great fit!

Great shorts, but the sizing is on the small size. I have been 16 in most per una jeans, but couldn’t even do them up! Go a size bigger

Lovely length

Yes, I recommend this

Lovely style, perfect length to be smart enough to go out in not just for holidays - love that there are belt loops. Run a little large so could be between sizes, as the larger size was gaping at the waist
