Product Insights
MARNI's Contrasting Shirt Collar Poplin Blouse, at $1,365 CAD, is a collector's piece defined by an exaggerated silhouette and a contrasting bib that eliminates the need for accessories or layering. The 100% cotton poplin's dense 2:1 weave holds pleats and structure, while the deliberately boxy oversized fit can be adjusted by sizing down or cinching with a belt to define the hourglass shape, leaving the cap sleeves full. Cap sleeves extend to mid-upper arm, and the blouse is opaque, requiring no camisole. It offers 94% wrinkle recovery after eight hours, and care requires pressing at 150°C with a cloth. The premium price—28% above standard poplin—is justified by Marni's experimental design and heritage, not the material itself.
