MY PAISLEY DILEMMA







If there is one print that I have to buy into know matter how much of that print I already have in my wardrobe, it is paisley, I like the opulent print, feathery plumes and swirls of  bright colours are such a heady mix.
 There’s no occasion to grand or casual that Paisley can’t really attend. Perhaps this is because this print has a serious cross cultural heritage with its roots in the East and the West, the name we know the print by today hails from the town of Paisley in central Scotland but came first really came to the attention of the UK in the 60’s when the Beatles added it to their stage wardrobe and their boho swagger, it fitted with their yen for Indian spirituality at the time.
