 Italian Virgin Wool

Our 100% virgin Italian wool is nothing short of a dream—part of its production involves being boiled, giving it a noticeably felted appearance. Our Merino wool, both the French Merino wool mix (20% Merino wool, 80% acrylic) and the 100% Italian extra fine Merino wool, are of fine fibers resulting in soft, lighter, and more flexible garments.

Care: Gentle care required—dry clean only. Do not bleach. Do not tumble dry. Dry flat when needed. Iron on low heat.

Stretch: None.

Italian Virgin Wool
 European Wool Blend

Our European wool blend is the thickest selection of our yarns. This yarn is a balance of 30% wool and 70% acrylic fibers - making it soft to the touch and more comfortable on the skin than traditional wool yarns.

Care: Dry clean only.

Stretch: Mid stretch.

Reviews

Easy comfortable versatile dress

"This dress is very pretty on. The fabric is mid weight and good for milder weather. I am between size small and medium with an athletic build and the medium fit comfortably fitted from bust to top of hips and loosened up through the hips. I have wide shoulders so the wide set straps work but someone with narrower shoulders will probably have issues keeping them up. I bought the cranberry color which is rich and beautiful. I’ll wear it casually with white sneakers or sandals and a light shawl as well as with stray heels. It’s very versatile. It’s my third Marcella dress. This brand is my new fav. For reference I am 5”3’ 125 lbs, 36-27-37"

— Melanie C. (5/5)

Fitted and Sexy

"I got this dress in black. It is fitted, which I like, so in my view, it looks like cocktail or party wear, not like a casual sundress. The fabric is nice, stretchy, smooth. I'm terrified of snagging it on something--no cats or dogs around me! I wore it to the theatre with a black Leon Bolero and high heels. I felt sexy and elegant."

— Ginger E. (5/5)

Love the material, good quality

"Love the material, good quality and fit pretty well. Thinking if I should get the other colors"

— Elsie G. (4/5)

Effortless sexy dress

"This is definitely an easy going dress that gives sexy vibes. Love the neckline and style. Even though I am short-waisted, this dress still works well and gives where it needs to (as often the waist on most dresses hits me toward my hips). The material hugs you, but is heavy enough to hide what you need it to."

— Heather K. (5/5)

Pretty in Pink!

"Beautiful, vibrant pink. I sized up because I wanted it looser, not form fiitting. It is perfect!"

— Karen W. (5/5)

Beautiful dress

"Lovely dress. Fits beautifully. Very comfortable. Material feels strong and sturdy, yet the dress is nice-looking and has a great quality and feel."

— Mariena S. (5/5)

Gorgeous dress!!!

"Gorgeous dress! I’m waiting for the perfect occasion to wear it!"

— Carol V. (5/5)

Perfect! ❤️

Amazing dress!

"I ordered this dress after seeing an Instagram ad for it. I do have a few other Marcella pieces, but this caught my eye. For my size, I am usually a size small, BUT I wanted it to look like the model: not tight, more of a European vacation feel. I ordered the medium in white and let me tell you, it is perfection. The material is very high quality and thick. I like this so that I don't have to wear a bra (it is more of a square neckline and I hate bra straps showing). I recently worn this out to dinner and then dancing after. I got SO MANY compliments! And it was soooo comfortable. I cannot recommend this dress enough. Currently ordering in the pink color too! For reference: I an 5'3, 34DD and 125 lbs."
