RARE VTG 1980s Marimekko Cotton Knit Clown Dress O/S Black Graphic Art Print
Unique and rare vintage 1980s Marimekko cotton knit dress, unworn and in excellent condition. Black pullover style with dropped shoulders, short sleeves, and generous armholes. The standout feature is a bold, colorful screen-printed clown/scarecrow/folk-art figure across the front — playful, surreal, and pure Marimekko design.
Never washed, never worn — this piece is NWOT vintage perfection. Oversized, one size fit, with flat measurements at 26” bust, waist, and hips (approx. 52” around), and a total length of 43”.
This dress embodies avant-garde 80s art fashion, whimsy-goth surrealist style, and Marimekko’s trademark bold graphic Scandinavian aesthetic. It’s a wearable piece of art — equally at home in a fashion collection or styled for statement streetwear.
Premium Rarity Note: This piece qualifies as museum-worthy, with archival-level collectibility due to condition (NWOT, unworn) and bold 1980s graphic Marimekko design.
