The Scent of Amber by ETRO
"Set in a Wunderkammer perfumed with amber and absinthe, the new ETRO collection for AW 2010/2011 will appeal to refined and versatile collector whose taste inclines to an informal luxury, wrapped in the voluptuous caress of D'Annunzio-style robes and flowing kimonos. ...
... A spell from which emerges a sensual and hierac woman who crosses the grand portal into the new. An intellectually sharp and sensitive woman who mixes the glamour of Diana Vreeland with the high brow charm of Peggy Guggenheim. ...
... Independent, cultured and self-willed she travels with exotic memories infused by the uplifting scent of amber. The orient becomes a point of departure for an existential renewal, the ideal place to rediscover her real identity. ...
... The tweed pencil skirt of the suit with neo-colonial allure falls below the knee and alternates with wrapover effect of the draped version, embracing a softness that favours lightweight yet corporeal and stretch fabrics. Like the satin evening dresses with tone-on-tone soutache embroideries or the silk drapp, perfect to set off the new season's print, placed like tattoos, a natural alternative to the classic all-over. ...
... Everything flows on a river of read lacquer to enrich a palette already vibrant with the shades of semi-precious stones: emerald, jade, amber. ...
... Etro unveils a new interpretation of the Paisley motif, introducing sacred symbols such as dragons, to bring strength and fortune to those who wear them, and totems influenced by the suggestive iconography of the samurai. ...

"... this was possibly the collection in which Veronica Etro had taken the house heritage in paisley and chinoiserie fabrics and most successfully integrated them into fashion. The paisley motifs were separated out and flattering placed in clusters riding on the flanks of pencil skirts or in the bodice of high-waisted dresses. ...That gave the cue for some great jewelry, including Cleopatra-like neckpieces, worn on sweaters with chic navy caban coats and cropped pants. Other elements were chinoiserie-quilted jackets, cheongsam blouses, and kimono gowns ..."
