Lotus Cotton-Lawn 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 signature triangular hand smocking at the neck. It has mid-length sleeves with gathered cuffs and a drawstring waist, lending it a subtly billowing, romantic shape.
