Katse Unikko

The Katse organic cotton poplin dress has a slim fit with a straight top, and a flared cut hem. The dress features the Unikko pattern, an O-neck with a concealed zipper in the back seam, side seam pockets, and a waist seam. The cuffed sleeves have slits and button closures.

Our dresses are sewn using the whole width of the fabric, and therefore their appearance may vary. Each item is unique.

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.
