Hi, I can confirm that the Marketplace does need an Internet Connection in order to load, but the Bug I'm trying to show you is that the Marketplace does not open when there is no Internet Connection while signed into a Microsoft Account. If you try to click on the Marketplace button while the Internet is turned off and while you are signed in, it does nothing when the Marketplace Button is clicked, if you look at the Dressing Room Screen the Bottom Box is completely gone compared to when you are not signed into a Microsoft Account.
Resolving as "Works As Intended" - Internet connection is required to load marketplace as it download the marketplace to cache memory, which should be deleted when you quit from marketplace to prevent cache/memory overloads. Basically, it was a bit like a internet browser.
