The paisley print has its roots in Persia and usually takes the shape of a twisted teardrop-like pattern. The design represents the cypress tree, a Zoroastrian symbol of life and eternity. The name as we know now originates from the town of Paisley in west Scotland. It made its way into mainstream fashion and on to the runways of JW Anderson (Autumn/Winter '11), Topman (Spring/Summer '12), Ashish (Spring/Summer '17) and is a regular fixture at Etro (Spring/Summer '14, Autumn/Winter '19, Spring/Summer '20)
