By now, we're more than used to the tricky shape that is the dropped crotch pant--so why did this Comme des Garçons pair catch us so off guard? It must be the madras, which takes the edgy cut in an entirely unexpected direction: preppy. Do you wear these with your combat boots, or with your needlepoint belt with little whales on it? Boat shoes or a black Rick Owens leather jacket? What say you, darlings: Would you wear these at all? THE DETAILS: Comme des Garçons Homme Plus madras short, $490, www.barneys.com
