The paisley pattern, inspired by nature, it's said to have its origins in ancient Persia and Central Asia, and later developed in Kashmir as a beautiful motif for shawls.In the 19th century, it was widely produced in the Scottish town of Paisley and became known by that name.In the 1960s, it became popular with the Beatles and hippie culture, and in the 1980sit was embraced by Etro, eventually becoming the fashion house’s signature pattern. I think the things that appeal to us have a way of coming back again and again, changing their form with the times.
