Tibi Metallic Silver Jacquard Silk-Blend Brocade Puff Sleeve Blouse
Tibi New York · Clothing & Accessories > Women's Tops
Era / Decade
Early 2010s. The script-style brand label and the voluminous, structured jacquard silhouette are characteristic of Tibi's designs from the 2010-2014 era.
Material
Likely a silk and polyester/metallic blend. The textured, woven jacquard fabric indicates a high-end designer construction common for the brand.
Condition
Fair to Good. There is a visible reddish-brown stain on the left mid-section (approx. 3-4 inches below the neckline) which significantly impacts the value unless professionally treated.
Demand Level
Moderate. Tibi has a loyal following, but earlier 2010s styles move slower than current minimalist 'Quiet Luxury' Tibi pieces. Demand peaks during the holiday/party season (Oct-Dec).
Resale Value
Estimated Resale Value
Low: $25 - $35 (if stain remains); Mid: $45 - $60 (if stain is removed); High: $75 (if in mint condition)
Estimated Retail Value
$285 - $395
Comparable Sales
Similar Tibi jacquard tops in good condition typically sell for $45-$65 on Poshmark. NWT (New With Tags) items can reach $90. Items with visible staining often sit in the $20 range.

Selling Guide
Where to Sell
The RealReal (for luxury authentication), Poshmark, or eBay. Better for platforms with a fashion-conscious buyer base who recognize the brand name.
Selling Tips
Photograph under bright, natural light to capture the metallic shimmer. Mention 'Holiday', 'Wedding Guest', and 'Regencycore' as keywords. Advise professional dry cleaning for the stain; do not attempt to scrub at home as metallic threads can fray.
