Archival ETRO Milano Paisley Wool Jersey Top 90s Heritage Print Made in Italy Size IT 42 S Curated Vintage
**The Ultimate Milanese Bohemian Dream**
**The Piece & Heritage:**
This exquisite long-sleeve top is a definitive testament to Etro’s golden era of textile innovation. Crafted from a luxurious, lightweight wool-jersey blend, it features the house’s iconic Paisley motif—an ancient Persian symbol (the 'Boteh') that the Etro family famously reimagined for the modern bohemian aristocrat. The color palette is a sophisticated chiaroscuro of deep burgundy, royal violet, and earth tones, reminiscent of a Renaissance tapestry filtered through a 1990s neo-grunge lens.
**The Silhouette:**
Dating back to the late 1990s / early Y2K, the silhouette is fluid and incredibly fluttering. It features a deep V-neckline and a beautifully gathered empire waist that provides a sculptural, body-conscious fit. It perfectly embodies the ‘L’Art de Vivre’ philosophy of the Milanese house.
**Fabric & Origin:**
* **Composition:** A rare, fine blend of Wool, Polyamide, and Elastane, offering a silken hand-feel and exceptional drape.
* **Origin:** Made in Italy. Proudly tailored at the historic Etro headquarters in Milano.
**Curator's Condition Report & Provenance:**
This is a highly collectible archival piece that carries the beautiful patina of its era.
*Condition:* Gently aged with character. In the spirit of full transparency, there is a single minor snag located at the front side of the garment. Due to the gathering of the fabric, this is nearly invisible when worn/styled and does not detract from the breathtaking visual of the intricate Renaissance print. Priced accordingly for the discerning collector who values authenticity and heritage.

A Note on Archival Fashion
Please keep in mind that these rare pieces have lived a past life. Minimal signs of wear or a natural patina are entirely normal and part of their unique history.
Care & Condition
I treat every garment with the utmost respect. Each piece is carefully hand-washed, steamed, or ozone-treated so it reaches you in beautiful, ready-to-wear condition. However, due to the age and nature of vintage textiles, a very faint vintage scent may occasionally linger.
Sizing & Fit
To showcase the intended drape and silhouette in our editorial photos, garments that are larger than the model may be subtly pinned. Please never rely on the photos alone for sizing; always use the detailed flat-lay measurements provided in the description to ensure a perfect fit.
Color Accuracy
We strive to capture the true essence of each garment, though slight color variations may occur depending on the lighting and your screen's calibration.
Boutique Policies
To ensure absolute fairness for all of our collectors, we operate strictly on a first-come, first-served basis. We do not accept reservations or higher bids on items that have already been sold. Additionally, as our prices reflect the rarity, authentication, and extensive restoration of each piece, they are strictly non-negotiable. Please take the time to review all measurements and details carefully before securing your piece.
