The Mono City Tote shoulder bag features the Piccolo pattern. The bag has both short and long handles, and an open pocket on the outside, which has the large Marimekko “M” printed on it. There are drawstrings at the sides that can be used to tighten the opening and change the silhouette of the bag.
The bag is made of 100% organic cotton.
In 1953, the very year she joined Marimekko, Vuokko Eskolin-Nurmesniemi created Piccolo, a striped fabric pattern painted with vivid brushstrokes. Three years later, the Jokapoika shirt made from the fabric appeared in stores and the streets – for good, it seems.
