The exclusive SSENSE Marni collection enchants with its daring use of vibrant colors and engaging prints, where each piece narrates its unique tale. The artful incorporation of faux fur adds an element of textural storytelling, providing a tactile dimension to the visual feast.

Every item in the Once Upon a Time at Marni collection stands as a character in its own right, from the casual ease of boldly printed tees to the relaxed bohemian nature of patchwork jeans.
