Every June is Pride Month, a time when the world comes together to celebrate love, freedom, and equality because love knows no borders, skin color, or gender. Many fashion brands also show their support during this time, including Marimekko, who embraces the rainbow with everyone, hoping to promote a mindset of hope, inclusivity, and optimism, celebrating gender diversity and reminding everyone to be accepting of different orientations.
Marimekko’s inspiration for Pride 2023 comes from a loving sentence written by its founder Armi Ratia in her diary when she was 14 years old: “There is only one strength – LOVE.” Marimekko spreads the message of love through various meaningful pattern artworks.
