Marimekko’s mission is to give people the chance to be happy and to give joy to everyday life through bold prints and colors. LifeWear is UNIQLO’s commitment to create high-quality clothing that is functional and affordable, to adapt to everyone’s everyday lifestyle.

The collection includes women’s garments designed to show some of Marimekko’s most recognizable prints such as Kivet (stones) designed by Maija Isola in 1956, Tasaraita (strip) by Annika Rimala from 1968 and Siirtolapuutarha (city garden) of Maija Louekari in 2009.

The collection will be available online and in the UNIQLO and Marimekko stores.
