Each creation comes in a custom-made hand-painted cotton canvas garment bag.

The design here presented is part of a series of hand-painted creations, which reflect the thoughts of Marni's community emerged during the Covid-19 pandemic. The words featured on each design are courtesy of friends, talents, photographers and creative consultants who have collaborated with the brand over the years: Jonah Hill, Mykki Blanco, Julien d'Ys, Michelle Elie and many others.

The garments, here reimagined by Creative Director Francesco Risso and his community, come from the Marni
archives and have been upcycled in occasion of Marnifesto, the digital event introducing Marni Spring/Summer 2021 collection.
