OUR STORY
A FEMALE-OWNED & RUN LABEL, BASED IN NEW YORK — EXPERIMENTING WITH FORM & MOVEMENT THROUGH DESIGN
Marby is where design meets motion. Every piece questions how form and function can coexist — crafted in small batches with purpose. Marby redefines activewear as an everyday design statement: structured, functional, and intentional.
Marby doesn't separate performance from presentation. A piece either earns its place in your closet or it doesn't — regardless of what you're doing when you wear it. That's the standard.
OUR FOUNDER
MEET GUNTAJ
Guntaj Arora graduated from Parsons School of Design, and started Marby in 2024. Design, for her, has never been abstract — it comes from three generations of family history in textiles, a lineage that taught her to see fabric, construction, and color as inherited language before she ever formally studied them.
New York is the other half of the equation. Guntaj is based in the city and pulls constantly from its rhythm — the pace of it, the layering, the way people move through it without stopping to think about how. Color is where it all comes together. Every Marby drop starts as a color story first, a specific mood translated into a specific shade, before it becomes a garment.
FABRICATION & SUSTAINABILITY
Marby's relationship to fabric didn't start on a factory floor — it started three generations earlier. Textiles run through Guntaj's family history, and that inheritance shapes how Marby thinks about material: not as a spec on a tech pack, but as something with weight, memory, and consequence.
That thinking is driving our next chapter. In 2026, we're experimenting with natural fibers in performance activewear (launching Fall 2026)— a category that's leaned on synthetics for decades. We're working to prove that performance and natural fiber aren't mutually exclusive, and this work-in-progress will debut later this year.
Small batches are the other half of the equation. Marby produces in limited runs by design, not by constraint — it's how we avoid the overproduction and dead stock that define so much of this industry.
