A timeless, easy to wear sleeveless shell gets a modern twist in Hanna Maciejewska’s Marai. Vertical and horizontal braided accents and an asymmetrical, split hemline add contemporary details to a classic silhouette, while Hanna’s signature top down, seamless construction methods and Kestrel’s cool drape make knitting Marai a breeze.
