The ETRO language moves in circles. It’s a system of eclectic elements, gathered along an endless journey, each time coming together in different ways while new ones are added as the journey continues, starting where it ended the previous season, on and on. Everything comes back, never in the same way. The circle is virtuous, the openness to new possibilities absolute. Marco De Vincenzo works in continuity, composing scores in which recognizable signs - flou, prints, references to the British-inflected masculine and formal world, a certain wandering spirit - are variables in an evolving narrative.

This season, Etro-sity is an act of collecting things and experiences, bringing distant worlds into dialogue. It is expressed paradigmatically in the counterpoint of tartans, trompe l’oeil scarf prints, motifs that recall medieval bestiaries or that magnify coats of arms, paisley, lean tailoring with unexpected details like feather trims, small sea-wolf coats, and the pervasive sparkle of sequins. It is a flow in which, once again, everything moves, entertaining eye, touch, and imagination: heralds like cords on knits, pleated skirts, long sequins that fade into feathers, devoré jacquards on jersey, golden fringes that edge scarves tied at the hips like sashes or martingales, dense and glittering embroideries of fantastical animals.
