Dubbed “Mindscapes,” the spring/summer 2014 collection from Marimekko was “inspired by the invigorating feeling of freedom one can experience when faced with the force of nature, offers an escape from the busy everyday life by bringing natural elements into the urban environment.” Sounds good to me! Without really knowing any of this and just looking at the the clothes can still invoke a sense of awe and a desire to dress in these free-flowing forms that look as pulled together as they surely are comfortable.
The black and white pieces will surely get a lot of play in your work wardrobe, but don’t under estimate the powerful patterns and pink paint stroke prints that are sure to be head turners, if not make for a fantastic iconic, signature look. See the slide show above for some of my top selections from the upcoming collection.
p.s. -does something look familiar? Perhaps I got to test one of them out during New York Fashion Week.…
