Elka Collective Perkins Denim Short in Ivory.

The Perkins is not trying to be a classic denim short. It's working from the same material — rigid 100% cotton denim that starts stiff and softens beautifully with wear — but the design details push it into something more specific. The fringing at the side seam and yoke is subtle rather than exaggerated: just enough texture to give the silhouette interest without tipping into the territory of casual cutoffs. In Ivory, the denim has a clean, fresh tone that makes the fringe detail read as deliberate and refined rather than worn-in.

The length is knee-length, which positions this as a more considered warm-weather option than the typical denim short — it works for a beach-adjacent weekend but also travels more easily into a day of errands or a casual lunch. The zip fly gives it a proper, structured waistband finish and a relaxed but not oversized silhouette.

Style Advise: The Perkins works best with a fine knit or a simple cotton top — try the Celia Knit Top in Pale Blue Marle tucked slightly at the front for a layered, warm-weather look. A flat leather sandal or a simple canvas sneaker keeps the tone relaxed. A structured linen button-down shirt worn open over the top is an easy way to move the look from beach-adjacent to properly daytime.

Fit Advise: Fits true to size. The rigid denim softens and moulds with wear. Model is 175cm tall and wears a size 8.
