Mono City Tote Unikko

The Mono City Tote Unikko is made of organic cotton. The large Marimekko “M” is printed in the front. The bag has both short and long handles, and an open pocket on the outside. There are drawstrings at the sides that can be used to tighten the opening and change the silhouette of the bag.

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.
