Lotus Cotton-Poplin Top

Founded in 2016 by designer Marina Cortbawi, Brooklyn-based Merlette thoughtfully crafts its garments from all natural, high-quality materials (cotton, wools and silks) with bespoke finishes — perfect for building a timeless wardrobe.

The 'Lotus' is a lightweight, cropped blouse with short sleeves and gathered cuffs, finished with a drawstring waist that creates a softly billowing, romantic silhouette. Reimagined this season in Pima cotton poplin in Skye and Navy, it features delicate French knot embroidery and pairs effortlessly with the Tulsi jean or Nandini pant.
