Designer Veronica Etro infuses the label’s trademark paisley print with an exoticism in a collection of ethnically inspired looks for the Fall/Winter 2014/2015 season, featuring plaids reminiscent of the Scottish highlands, shawls that suggest the Andes and Oriental accents on sheer tops that evoke an East-West travel route.
The silhouette is flowing and the clothes easy to wear. A blanket shawl with fringe finish is worn over printed skirts with boots. Short, wide trousers are worn with a boyish patchwork knit sweater.
Embroidery, lame and jacquard are employed generously. The colors are warm, mostly Earthy tones, like Bordeaux, rust and mustard, with very little black. Looks are finished with folksy bracelets and necklaces -- or a scarf nearly long enough to brush the floor.
Etro said the collection was “like a clash, a melting pot of different nomadic cultures”.
