I love the curled shapes of the Paisley Pattern. See it here on a poster from allposters of a design from 1871.
Originally from the East, brought into Europe by the traders of the East India Company in the 17th Century, the paisley pattern got its name when the weavers of Paisley in Scotland started to produce material for shawls on their looms in large quantities in the 19th century. This design for a Paisley was made by George Charles Haite in around 1871.
Paisley is now back in fashion for 2012, with Stella McCartney leading the way. Find out How to wear the new Paisley in 2012 here. Paisley has been seen on A-List Celebrities such as Gwyneth Paltrow and Kate Hudson in the last few weeks. You can see photos of how they look in the new Paisley here.
