With summer nearly here, Etro invites you on a journey through the landscapes of a volcanic island, presented through a collection defined by lightness, color, and ease. A spirit of travel runs throughout, where the natural world informs both texture and silhouette.
Fluid in construction and grounded in natural fibers, textures emerge through crochet, sangallo on duchesse, and cotton jacquard, set against the refinement of silk twill, fil coupé, and crêpe de chine. Across the campaign imagery, prints take on a painterly quality, unfolding against sky blue backdrops where vegetation appears to grow across suits and softly flounced dresses. Knitwear is rendered in openwork patterns with subtle geometric variation, while denim is reinterpreted through jackets and trousers detailed with paisley.

A palette drawn from warm, enveloping tones of ivory, coral, red, green, and ochre reflects the richness of the landscape. Textured weaves and light layering reinforce a sense of atmosphere, while fringed details bring movement to dresses and kimonos. Beachwear, spanning bikinis, one-pieces, and silk pareos, is introduced with the same attention to material and color, maintaining continuity across the collection.

In collaboration with British artist Tabby Booth, an imagined dimension emerges. Her work introduces a world where nature and mythology meet, expressed through stylized animals, primitive figures, and arboreal forms. Paisley is revisited with a more expressive approach, appearing across caftans, kimonos, pajama sets, denim, and beachwear in sharper contrasts and bolder compositions.

Menswear continues the dialogue through a palette drawn from both earth and sky. Golden yellow and deep blue are set against grounded neutrals, with touches of violet adding depth. Fabrics remain centered on linen, cotton, and silk blends, with lightweight wool shaping tailoring. Jackets, printed shirts, and jacquard denim balance precision and ease, while accessories, including scarves, bandanas, and suede espadrilles with jute soles and leather trim, complete the look.
Introduced alongside the collection, a suitcase set created with Globe Trotter extends the idea of travel. Constructed with Arnica fabric and marked with “Since 1968,” the pieces reference the house’s heritage, while the Pegasus emblem signals a continued association with movement and discovery.
