Padded Peplum Short-Sleeve Sweater
Marc Jacobs Runway
$1850.00
Product Insights & Style Tips
The Marc Jacobs Runway sweater reads like wearable sculpture in knit form. Handspun in a crisp English rib, it blooms into a padded peplum bodice and voluminous cuffs that elevate cozy texture into high fashion drama. A crew neckline and short sleeves keep the look grounded, while a wool blend with nylon, polyamide and polyurethane gives structure without stiffness. Hip-length proportions anchor the piece in modern, versatile territory.
On the body, the fit-and-flare silhouette skimps the bust and waist before expanding at the hips, while the back zip finishes the line cleanly. The short sleeves balance the volume for easy layering under a blazer or over a slim turtleneck, and the piece can anchor everything from tailored trousers to sleek skirts. Transitions from day to night feel instinctive, with the dramatic peplum lending presence to both pared-down and more polished ensembles.
Marc Jacobs Runway continues to celebrate bold textures and sculptural shapes, and this knit channels that energy with a modern American luxury gloss. It pairs with clean leather, satin, or denim to underline the label's penchant for statement knitwear that still reads polished and wearable for now and next season.
