MARIPOSA DENIM SHORTS

Mariposa Denim Shorts

Free-spirited, shimmering & ready to take flight.

Our Mariposa Denim Shorts reimagine classic denim with a whimsical, statement-making centerpiece, featuring a fully hand-embroidered butterfly crafted with sequins, beads, and intricate threadwork. Adorned with iridescent turquoise, gold, and lilac wings spread wide across the front, complete with delicate jeweled antennae, each stitch adds a shimmering yet mesmerizing detail, creating the perfect balance of whimsy and statement-making style.

Inspired by the delicate beauty of transformation and flight, these shorts blend everyday wearability with handcrafted artistry. Cut in a relaxed fit with a frayed raw hem and light acid wash, Mariposa Denim Shorts bring a free-spirited, radiant edge to every outfit - whether you're styling them for a festival, a beach day, or an everyday look with a little extra sparkle.

Each piece is carefully hand-embroidered by skilled artisans using traditional sequins, beads, and threadwork techniques, making every pair truly one of a kind with its own unique character and handcrafted charm.

Note: This handcrafted butterfly embroidery can be customized on any denim style (jeans, shorts, skirts, jackets, etc.), though the final look may slightly vary depending on the base style.

HOW IT WORKS - Custom Hand-Embroidery

Every piece we create is hand-embroidered to order, which means you choose how you want your design brought to life - on a jacket, jeans, or shorts.

1. Send Us Your Own Denim Already have a piece you love? Ship it to us and our artisans will hand-embroider this design onto it, exactly as shown. Note: Please leave "Sending my own denim" in the order note - we'll email you shipping details after checkout.

2. Choose From Our In-House Denim Prefer a ready base? Pick from our curated stock of vintage denim - each piece with its own measurements listed - and we'll embroider your chosen design onto it. Note: Please leave "Buying from your stock" in the order note along with your preferred size/measurements.

3. Get Your Preferred Brand Sourced Have a specific brand in mind - Levi's, Wrangler, or another? Let us know and we'll source it for you before embroidering. Note: Please mention "Source this brand: ___" in the order note. Availability and pricing may vary depending on the brand.

A Few Things to Know:

• Since each piece is hand-embroidered on individual denim, sizing and fit may vary slightly across garments - please check measurements before ordering.
• Turnaround time may vary depending on the option chosen (2-3 weeks for embroidery-only; longer if sourcing a specific brand).
• Every design is one of a kind - no two pieces are exactly alike.
