This shawl is part of a capsule wardrobe designed by Sari Nordlund, comprising nine designs perfectly compatible with each other. The capsule wardrobe concept was introduced in Britain in the 1970’s, and has recently regained popularity as fashion consumption slowly shifts in a more sustainable direction.

The collection is named Oodi, and each garment is named after a Finnish female writer. Edith Södergran was a pioneer modernist poet, who died only 31 years old. Her brief production has been widely recognized and keeps attracting generations of new readers.
