Kioski Siete Patja vest 025 - Marimekko

The Siete knitted vest is made of organic cotton and it has a slim, straight fit. The short vest features the Patja pattern in the ribbing and the small embroidered Unikko flower in the front. The vest has a V-neck with wide double-ribbing, ribbing at the sleeve openings, and wide ribbing at the hemline.

Stripes have always been essential to the world of Marimekko patterns. Maija Isola created Patja (mattress), a stripe design with a dense rhythm, in 1979.

Unikko (poppy), symbolizing creativity, was born in a time when hardly any floral designs were included in Marimekko’s collections. Maija Isola, however, was fascinated by the theme of flowers and decided to create an entire range of novel floral prints.
