1972 · Packaging design · Shampoo bottle · Womena Advertising, Helsinki

In the collection of the Museum of Modern Art, New York.

A shampoo bottle shaped like a human figure, released in Finland in 1972 and re-released in 2017. Marjut designed the packaging while working at the advertising agency Womena in Helsinki, in the same year as [her first commercial](https://marjutrimminen.com/commercials/vivante/). It was considered sculptural enough that the bottle was acquired for the collections of the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
