Man's Ensemble, The Tree of Life, Spring Summer 2018

This is a Man's ensemble. It was designed by Etro.

This object is not part of the Cooper Hewitt's permanent collection. It was able to spend time at the museum on loan from Etro as part of Paisley.

It is dated Spring Summer 2018. Its medium is paisley-printed silk with metallic embroidery. It is a part of the Exhibitions department.



Fifty years after its founding, Etro maintains its fascination with paisley, constantly reinventing the motif through color, form, and texture. Taking inspiration from the Tree of Life interpretation of the motif’s derivation, this collection includes exuberant combinations of colors as well as a brilliant white with gray pairing to serve as backdrops for a torrent of paisley motifs.

It is credited Courtesy of Etro.

This object was previously on display as a part of the exhibition Paisley.
