The paisley pattern is one that has made its mark in both the fashion and interior fields. Originating in Persia, this teardrop shaped motif is both elegant and artful and can be applied in an infinite number of ways. Popularized in the 60’s during the rise of psychedelic styles and even associated with the iconic musical group The Beatles, the paisley print has survived the test of time over centuries and evolved to become a staple. Print them on gossamer fabrics for an ethereal finish on a dress, or use them as day curtains to elevate a room. Despite its delicate nature, the paisley is also commonly found as a pattern on men’s ties, waistcoats, and scarves. Our illustrative renditions of it in watercolour and impressionist forms are easily used in home decor, or in both womenswear and menswear.
