Leiot Pieni Unikko

Made of organic cotton French terry, the Leiot sweatshirt has a relaxed fit and it features the Pieni Unikko pattern. The sweatshirt has a rib O-neck and wide ribbing at the sleeve ends and hemline.

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.?
