Silas V-Neck Cotton-Poplin Top

Marina Cortbawi celebrates shape, texture and form through every piece she designs for her Brooklyn-based label Merlette. Borrowing cues from traditional kimonos, she whips up the Silas top from soft, pure cotton shaped to a relaxed fit and shaped to cinch in at your waist, outlining the top of your hips with subtle embroidery before flaring out to the hem. Team yours with straight-leg trousers or skinny leather ones to emphasise the sculptural silhouette.
