MARNI INTRODUCES THE TULIPEA BAG

Unveiled for the first time on the Fall/Winter 2025 runway in Milan, Marni’s new TULIPEA bag encapsulates the brand’s enduring fascination with florals. Drawing inspiration from the tulip — a symbol of enduring love and natural grace — the bag translates botanical beauty into a sculptural, wearable form.

Elegance in Bloom
Defined by its elongated silhouette and softly gathered sides, TULIPEA is crafted in delicate calfskin and velvety suede. Its design evokes the gentle unfurling of a tulip bud, striking a balance between architectural precision and organic softness. 

At once refined and unforced, the bag reflects Marni’s unique approach to elegance: rooted in simplicity, yet never predictable.

Form and Substance
Its sinuous shape relies on the supple substance of the leather itself, which lends the structure a soft yet sculptural presence. With subtle retro allusions, the TULIPEA bag is elevated through meticulous detailing and an understated sense of luxury.

Pure Lines, Considered Details
Conceived with a minimalist approach to hardware, TULIPEA allows the purity of form and the quality of materials to take center stage. A structured central compartment anchors the design, while soft gussets, gathered with leather drawstrings, open fluidly at the sides — lending a sense of quiet movement.

Edges are outlined with refined French binding, delicately tracing the body’s contours. Sinuous top handles are complemented by a detachable shoulder strap, allowing for versatile styling — whether hand-carried, worn on the shoulder, or crossbody.

Inside, a semi-bonded, suede-like lining offers both durability and comfort. Discreet rounded leather accents and a subtly embossed Marni logo at the lower front add an intimate, almost whispered sophistication.

A Study in Variation
For its debut, TULIPEA is presented in a variety of sizes and seasonal tones: a small and large version with short handles, and a medium version featuring an extended top-handle. The colour palette — citronelle, brandy, coffee and black — captures the richness and depth of the Fall/Winter season.
