Mara Top - Cafe Soft Ponte
A long sleeve top with a unique wide boatneck that softly transitions into a slight v-shape. The shorter front hem makes it easy to style with a variety of bottoms while the back hem still gives you coverage. The body is similar to our beloved Hannah which guarantees the it'll be comfortable in all the right areas. We love Mara for easy layering with jackets, cardigans, and outerwear.
Why you'll love it
Mara was designed to give you the ease of Hannah with a new shape. The thoughtful side seam placement creates long, clean lines down the torso for a subtly slimming effect — without feeling tight or restrictive. The curved back hem offers comfortable “butt coverage,” while the shorter front hem lets you style this top with a French tuck, pair it with tailored pants, or layer it under your favorite outerwear. If Hannah ever felt a touch too oversized or you wanted a new neckline option, we think you'll love Mara!

Fabric and Care
Our semi-midweight rayon jersey, also known as our soft ponte, is made from the same rayon-spandex blend with the same soft, smooth hand feel — just with a bit more substance.
This fabric offers more structure and shape retention, meaning it holds the silhouette of the top more clearly while still feeling comfortable and flexible. It’s not stiff, just more polished.

Designer Notes - From Allison
“When we created Mara, I wanted to keep everything women love about Hannah — the softness, the comfort, the ease — but refine the fit so it could work even harder in your wardrobe. The boatneck detail adds openness around the face, and the adjusted side seams help draw the eye down for a long, flattering line. I kept the curved back hem because I know how important coverage back there is, especially when you’re layering or moving throughout your day.”
