Marimekko Kaste Dress Valentines red stripes Mandarin collar pockets XS

The awesome Kaste Dress in bright red and dark red stripes with a mandarin or Nehru collar from Marimekko! Valentines outfit! Instantly charming, Marimekko’s Kaste Dress weaves comfort with crisp classic stripes to capture your undivided attention. Striped in light red and dark red stripes, the even stripe pattern called Tasaraita, this pattern became popular in the late 60’s and is now a staple design in Finnish fashion culture. Created in 1968 by Annika Rimala, she conceptualized a printed stretch cotton fabric that was comfortable but also had universal style. Made from soft 100% stretch cotton, this dress softly forms to your body to create a loose A-line shape that stretches with your movements. Small details such as a cropped mandarin collar, 3/4 length sleeves and two pockets, give the garment functionality and interest. At the office or at a picnic in the park, the Kaste dress takes comfort and fuses it with mod design to create a piece of clothing that is extremely wearable yet classically structured.
