The Etro Spring 2024 RTW collection features brocades and jackets with a Western flair, the tie motifs and stripes, and the denim and terry cloth that come together in a stylistic non-place at once syncretic and vital.

The toes of Texan boots meet fabric braids and wide shirting reimagines illustrations of a mysterious island where they are joined together with striping in voluptuous swirls. All of this is enhanced with a certain etherealness and enlightened sense of free spirit.  This season offeres straight and vertical, or opening up at the bottom, elongating and figure hugging with blazers and varsity jackets that envelop in protective volumes.

To seal this reverie, an ancient Mycenaean symbol: an octopus, a sign of rebirth, a wish for good luck. And, at the lobes, a blindfolded goddess in the form of an earring as if to say dare and you will be rewarded, another way of describing the daily act of getting dressed and playing freely using only instinct and imagination.
