You know a fashion craze has hit the big time when Barbie's boyfriend
Ken is wearing it. Yes, our very own Ken was dressed in Paisley
prints in the '60s - as was everyone else.
The original Paisley design originated in the Middle East (unless
you ask a Scot) but eventually found its way to the western fashion
world.
The ultimate in cool was a bright fluorescent Paisley shirt, cut
from a soft wool fabric with a colourful, woven or printed swirled
pattern of abstract curved shapes.
The design became synonymous the hippie movement of late Sixties.
