BALANSSI UNIKKO

The lightly padded Balanssi overshirt is made of cotton poplin with a relaxed, A-line fit. The reversible shirt features the Unikko pattern on one side and a solid light color on the other. The overshirt has a pointed collar and the Marimekko label at the back neckline on both sides. It has a snap button closure, a curved hem, and slits and snap buttons at the cuffs. The Unikko pattern side of the shirt has side seam pockets. The fabric is printed in Helsinki.

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

Unbleached cotton fabric has a natural lively color and surface, where small dark dots originated from the cotton plant may appear. There may be differences between products regarding this feature.

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.
