Monokromi Unikko

The Monokromi shirt dress has a relaxed, straight fit and it is printed in the Unikko pattern. The dress is made of organic cotton chambray, which has a lively, mélange look. The dress has a pointed collar, a button closure, and two chest pockets, one of which has a flap. The dress has long loose sleeves, side seam pockets, and a back yoke seam with pleats.

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.
