The Helsinki-based Minna Parikka brand was founded in 2005, an adventure in surreal styling, eccentricity and playfulness that prizes quality and attention to detail. Minna’s iconic designs have been worn by Lady Gaga, Taylor Swift, Cara Delevigne, the Jenners and the Kardashians – just to name a few!
‘All women should stand on their own two feet without anybody telling them how they should look, think or live. Life is too short to be lived in dull shoes.’
Minna Parikka
The Story Continues
Eventually, she got the boot from a shoe brand she was working for and decided she wanted to be in charge of her own life and creative work. In 2005, she returned to her home city of Helsinki and the MINNA PARIKKA brand was born.
The brand continued following its own path for the next 15 years. When deciding to close the business operations in late 2020 the brand had never been more successful.
‘I want to continuously develop myself and I felt like I had given all that I have to my brand. Now it is the time for me to take a new direction in life and allow all the new adventures to arrive.’
