 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.

PERFECT trousers

"I’m 47 yo, 5’4, 114-118 pounds. These pants fit Perfectly. The trousers have a little bit of sheen/shine to them, the pleating falls perfectly. Easily dress up or down. The material is super soft and these wear very comfortably on. I recommend these. My only concern is that they need to be hung dried, and they cannot be ironed. The instructions also do not include whether or not I can have them dry cleaned. They have wrinkles in them and I’m not sure how to address that without being able to iron them."

— Geana N. (5/5)

My new favorite pants

"These are totally splurge-worthy. So flattering, and I love its tone of green. The petite size fits perfectly. Finally!"

— Leticia a. (5/5)

Nice color

"The color is very nice. 5’2 and it’s a bit long still. I plan to take it up a little, I got because they said it was petite friendly. The material was not as drapey as I hoped."

— wendy k. (4/5)

Win for the shorties.

"Fits great on my 5'3 frame, light weight and sleek. Petite size feels just right in the length too."

— Vanessa H. (5/5)

Archie pants

"Excellent"

— Nadine N. (5/5)

Love these pants!

"I am 5’4’’ and 110 lbs, not much hip, ordered petite XS and the fit is exactly what I was looking for, a bit relaxed but polished. The fabric has the slightest sheen, smooth feel and is a nice medium weight. They wash well. I wore them on a 3.5 hr flight, a 2 hr car ride and they did not wrinkle. Looked great for the rest of the evening."

— CP (5/5)

Really great pants!

"I love the dark green color, makes them a neutral. Fit is nice with a higher waist- and excellent fabric. They don’t wrinkle and drape nicely!"

— Karen F. (5/5)

Nice

"They look and fit great."

— Melissa B. (5/5)

Ok, I give up on pleated pants!

"The Marcella NYC Archie Pants, although promising, didn't quite work out for me, and I'd rate them a 4 out of 5 stars. I had high hopes for these pants, but they turned out to be a bit too small for my liking. I typically wear a size 10 or 12 in pants, and I opted for the Petite Large size in these pants. Unfortunately, they were too tight in the waist and bum, which made them uncomfortable to wear for extended periods. This sizing issue was a disappointment, especially given my previous positive experiences with Marcella NYC's sizing. Additionally, just like another reviewer, I found that pleated pants, including the Archie Pants, don't work well for my body type. The vertical pleat detailing and crease didn't flatter my figure as I had hoped, which was a letdown. Surprisingly, I also wasn't too crazy about the fabric of these pants. Marcella NYC typically excels in fabric choices, but this time, it didn't quite meet my expectations. It didn't feel as high-quality as I had anticipated, which was a bit of a surprise."

— Andrea S. (4/5)

Best for thin girls

"Pleated pants just do not work for me (I'm 5'4" and 170lbs) but I'm sure these look great on taller, thinner girls!"

— A. S. (5/5)
