ETRO SPRING 2009

There was a change in the winds at Etro, as the design house looked East toward Indonesia and India for inspiration. 

One felt as if they were walking through an Indian spice market as a vibrant array of colors paraded down the runway. 

The strong neutral color palette was spiced up with burnt-oranges, brushed browns, flower blossom pinks, minty greens, pastel turquoises and golden yellows.

These colors infused rich silk kimono sleeved jackets, beautiful batik printed chiffons dresses, Sari inspired overalls, luxurious jewel encrusted vests, and of course Etro’s signature, paisley printed silk dresses and pants – which is where this collection really shined.

All in all it was a collection that had enough wearable pieces to please buyers, and a good enough infusion of “one-off” style garments to satiate the fashionistas.
