I love the clothes from the Marimekko Fall 2008 collection, especially these designed by Samu-Jussi Koski. I would love to wear them all…

    I like the Kamilla dress. Marimekko always has the best cloths, fabric and colours.

    Great colors and patterns! I love Marimekko clothes but as a student they’re a bit out of my price range for now.

    Kay, Marimekko’s origins are in fashion! If you’re interested, there’s a decade-by-decade timeline of their history here:

    Katja, I haven’t been a student for a long time, but they’re still out of my price range. 😉
