Why Marni is worth it
Marni makes clashing prints and off-kilter color look deliberate: clothes with an art-school sense of humor and serious Italian making behind them.
Prints carry the house, florals, stripes and painterly marks layered so they argue a little, on shapes that swing from boxy and oversized to slim and draped. Fabrics lean natural, wool, cotton and leather above all, and the bags and shoes share the same playful, slightly odd proportions, so a single piece reads as Marni from across the room.

About Marni
Consuelo Castiglioni started Marni in Milan in 1994, growing it out of her family's fur business into a full ready-to-wear house with a taste for color and mismatched prints.
The founding family stepped away in 2016, and the house has kept its mix of artful prints, experimental shapes and hands-on craft under the designers who followed.
