Chosen by you, we asked the Kowtow Collective to vote on which archival fabrics they wanted the beloved Marta Dress to return in. Designed with you, the Marta Dress is now available in our Reimagine Capsule collection.
An artful dress, made from repurposed cotton poplin shirting. The Marta Dress is defined by sculptural balloon sleeves and a wrap front detail which creates a flattering V neckline. It has a standard fit with shaping through the back bodice, and inseam pockets for ease of wear.
All Fairtrade organic cotton. All plastic-free.
Due to the limited availability of surplus fabrics, sizes are limited with this capsule.
