Kimppu Unikko
Dress
The Kimppu dress is made of organic cotton poplin, and it has a relaxed, A-line fit. The dress features the Unikko pattern, which is printed in Helsinki. The dress has a deep V-neck, side seam pockets, and a separate D-ring belt. The voluminous raglan sleeves have elastic gathers at the cuffs.
Our dresses are sewn using the whole width of the fabric, and therefore their appearance may vary. Each item is unique.
Unikko
Unikko was created by Maija Isola in 1964 and has since become an international icon of print design. The founder of Marimekko, Armi Ratia, believed that it was not possible to faithfully capture the true essence of real flowers in print, which is why floral prints were earlier excluded from Marimekko collections. So, Maija Isola designed Unikko to be an abstraction of a flower rather than a photorealistic rendition. Today, Unikko is a powerful emblem of joy and creativity, seamlessly integrated into Marimekko's design identity.
