B.B. Wallace is a Belgian knitwear label launched in September 2025 by designer Meryll Rogge, Marni's creative director, with British knit specialist Sarah Allsopp, whom she met at Marc Jacobs. Named after Rogge's sons and marked by a swan woven label, the seasonless line centers on Shetland wool, Donegal, cashmere and double-faced constructions: crewnecks, layered cardigans, pointelle sets, mittens, hats and home pieces. Colour-drenched but restrained, pieces are engineered as heirlooms rather than trend items, with production including Belgium. Stocked by SSENSE and independent boutiques.
