Magda Butrym shorts: cashmere, crochet, leather and denim

Posted by author-avatar

Magda Butrym makes shorts for winter as well as summer, which is unusual. Most of them are knitted, in cashmere, wool and cashmere, and pure wool, and they are designed as the bottom half of a knit set: worn with the matching sweater, tights and boots. The rest are crochet, leather and denim. 15 shorts on Coveti, $1,170 to $2,930, median $1,790, 10 of them knitted. This page sorts them by fabric and season and says how each one fits. Shop the Magda Butrym collection at Coveti, compare every designer pair of shorts, and see the knitwear guide for the matching sweaters.

Why shorts in winter

The autumn winter 2026 collection pairs knitted shorts with the sweater of the same yarn: the geometric knit shorts with the geometric knit sweater and scarf in red and brown, the wool knit shorts with the cropped cardigans. Worn with opaque tights and knee boots, a short knit reads as a mini skirt with more ease. The knitwear guide lists the matching tops.

The cashmere shorts

The cashmere bermuda knit shorts in beige are the longest, ending just above the knee, and pure cashmere. The patterned cashmere shorts in camel and grey are shorter with a knitted pattern; the cashmere crochet-trim shorts in black finish the hem with cotton crochet. All are soft against bare legs in spring and warm over tights.

Crochet shorts

The high-waisted crochet shorts in beige are hand crochet cotton, made to wear with the matching crochet bra top on a beach and with a crisp shirt in town. The crochet lace padded shorts in grey are lined in silk. The crochet guide explains the handwork and care.

Leather and denim shorts

The flared leather shorts in brown are sheep leather lined in viscose, with a flared leg that sits away from the thigh; wear them with a fine knit and a long coat. The flared denim shorts in brown are rigid cotton in the same cut. The leather jacket guide and the denim guide have the matching pieces.

The summer shorts

The striped bubble shorts with a ruffle waist in blue cotton and silk gather into a puff at the leg and are the house resort shape; the cotton knit shorts in brown are the easiest to wash. Pair them with the knotted t-shirt and a flat sandal. The t-shirt guide and the sandals guide have the rest.

Fit and care

Take your usual EU size; the knits have some give, the leather and denim do not. Hand wash cashmere and wool cold and dry flat; never hang a knit short by the waistband. Dry clean the leather and the crochet lace padded shorts; spot clean the crochet and dry it flat.

“The Warsaw-based designer’s fall 2026 collection shifted from her signature sensual, colorful dresses to an emphasis on outerwear, with largely monochrome crochet, faux fur, shearling, boucle and dense knits adding to the drama,” WWD wrote in its Spring 2027 review.
