    Frequently Asked Questions

    What does the Marimekko ready-to-wear line include?

    The Marimekko ready-to-wear line spans dresses, coats, tops and accessories, all cut from the house's printed cottons and jerseys in relaxed, easy shapes for daily wear; individual coats sit under scarves and wraps. Our Marimekko ready-to-wear at Eleish Van Breems Home adds real colour to a wardrobe.

    Which Marimekko ready-to-wear sizes and prints should I pick?

    When choosing Marimekko ready-to-wear, consider the garment's listed size, shape and print scale, then allow room for layering where appropriate, topped by a wrap. Choose one statement piece and keep the rest of the outfit plain.

    How do I wear Marimekko ready-to-wear day to day?

    Day to day, Marimekko ready-to-wear reads clearest as one printed piece over neutral basics — a dress or top carrying the colour, with trousers and shoes kept plain; echo it at home with a pillow. Let a single strong print really do the talking here.

    How should Marimekko garments be washed?

    For Marimekko garments, follow each item's care label, turn printed pieces inside out where appropriate, wash cool and dry according to the fabric's requirements; homeware textiles sit under tablecloths, placemats & runners. Give structured pieces the care their fabric asks rather than a hot machine cycle.
