Product Insights
Marimekko's Edetä Tumma Maxi Skirt ($440 CAD) showcases the bold, bulbous floral Tumma pattern created by Isola in 1970 as a Paris souvenir, marking a creative shift toward Arabian-inspired designs. The skirt is made from plant-based cupro crepe, a vegan and sustainable fabric derived from cotton waste that offers anti-static, breathable, moisture-wicking properties and holds dye with sharp fidelity for vivid pattern longevity. Cupro's pebbled texture helps the hem hold its shape while feeling cool against the skin. The fitted silhouette (size up if between sizes) features an elastic-gathered back waist, hook-and-eye closure, and concealed zipper. The core promise is an eco-friendly, comfortable skirt with long-lasting color and drape, though the red version is generally opaque without a slip in most lighting, and dry cleaning is recommended to maintain shape and reduce wrinkles.
