Product Insights & Style Tips

The Khaite Auggie Pleated Wool & Silk Wide Leg Shorts radiate a grown-up, city-slick vibe. Knee-length and trouser-inspired, they’re cut in lightweight wool that’s silk-enriched for a soft, fluid drape and a subtle sheen. The reverse-pleats sit toward the sides and are pressed into creases to preserve clean lines. A zip fly with hook-and-bar closure keeps the silhouette tidy, while front slant pockets and back welt pockets add practical polish. Made in Italy, these shorts feel refined and ready for real-life wear.

On the body they sit with a relaxed yet tailored fall, the wide leg reading modern while staying timeless. The wool-silk mix holds its shape through errands or a night out, and the pockets keep essentials close at hand without bulk. They layer easily under a sharp blazer or a fine-knit top, moving from office lunches to weekend dinners with ease. The Italian craftsmanship lends crisp lines from rise to sunset.

Khaite continues to fuse heritage tailoring with contemporary ease, and the Auggie shorts are a crisp example. Pair with a white shirt and loafers for a luxe day look, or with a silk cami and ankle boots when the setting shifts.

Khaite Fall 2026 Brings Cinematic Runway Drama

Khaite presented its Fall 2026 runway collection at New York Fashion Week inside the Park Avenue Armory. A massive curved LED wall stretched across the venue and projected the words “Now you are here. Here you are now” as guests entered the room. The installation rose nearly sixty feet high and formed the visual backdrop for Catherine Holstein’s latest show. Designed with architectural designer Griffin Frazen, the set created a reflective atmosphere before the first model stepped onto the runway. The show continued Holstein’s vision of the Khaite woman through precise tailoring, dramatic eveningwear, and details that shifted the mood of familiar silhouettes. Lace, velvet, and sharp outerwear appeared throughout the lineup, creating contrast between romantic dressing and structured pieces. The show builds on the direction Holstein established in previous seasons, which you can see across earlier Khaite runway coverage on The Cool Hour.

Khaite Pre-Fall 2026 Rewrites Fit Through A Sharper Sensual Mood

Khaite opens Pre-Fall 2026 with a kind of charged hush that feels familiar if you follow Catherine Holstein. The collection turns its focus toward silhouettes that tilt, curve, or fall slightly off center. Jackets close with buttons that sit a touch higher on one side, skirts drift along the hip with a natural sway, and sheer layers create small ripples that catch the eye before fading back into the look. The effect gives the clothes a human pulse, as if they were shaped by the rhythm of someone already living in them. It feels personal and a little unruly in a way that suits the brand’s grounded attitude.

Khaite Spring 2026 Brings Bold Silhouettes and Timeless Staples

Khaite’s Spring 2026 collection tells a story about confidence that feels both intimate and daring. Catherine Holstein, the brand’s creative director, challenges the idea that self-assurance is born from perfection. Instead, she proposes that confidence blooms from the tension between insecurity and vulnerability. This duality shaped the collection, which opened with oversized leather jackets styled with relaxed trousers and continued with delicate knits paired with pencil skirts. The Khaite woman emerges as someone who does not need to polish every edge to be magnetic. Her undone hair and easy styling choices keep her grounded, yet her presence is unmistakably powerful.
