The Kukkavera Eldfamn Cotton Shirt by Marimekko.
The Kukkavera Eldfamn Cotton Shirt by Marimekko is a beautifully crafted piece made from sturdy organic cotton, designed with an oversized, A-line silhouette that drapes effortlessly. This versatile overshirt features the striking Eldfamn pattern, thoughtfully printed in Helsinki. The design boasts a pointed collar, a classic button closure, and a functional chest pocket, with side seam slits that add a touch of movement and ease. The sleeves are gently rounded, with wide turn-up cuffs that enhance the relaxed yet refined look. The voluminous back piece is cut in a bell shape, complemented by a yoke seam that adds subtle structure.
Each Kukkavera Overshirt is made using the full width of the fabric, meaning every piece is one-of-a-kind, with slight variations in its appearance—making yours truly unique.
The Eldfamn pattern, part of Petra Börner’s ongoing Poweflower series, draws inspiration from nature's beauty and the vitality of growth. Known for her use of dynamic lines and passionate strokes, Börner’s work is a celebration of color’s power and the vibrancy of life. The Eldfamn design, created using Indian ink and acrylics, embodies a sense of energy and warmth, as if wrapped in a glowing embrace, radiating positive energy.
