Why is Marimekko so popular?
Marimekko's success as a company comes from great decision making, and its great contracted clothing and graphic designers. They also have a lovely long tradition of always honoring their best designs by keeping them in use. Which means that we are still wearing prints from the 1960's! How cool is that?!
The name Marimekko derives from the vernacular Finnish form of the girl's name “Mary” and mekko, which means “dress.” The combination of the modern and the traditional proved invaluable to the company's success in Finland and internationally.
