ERGON MYKONOS Mosho Shirt

Ergon Mykonos Mosho Shirt is part of 1821 Evolution collection inspired by the painters of the revolution during the early 19th century, who left behind an enormous heritage for the generations to come. SS21 is a tribute to the 200 years of Greece’s liberation from 400 years of slavery by the Ottoman Empire.
The inspiration for Ergon Mykonos 1821 Evolution comes from a research of the history and the scenes depicted with ‘journalistic detail’ on the canvases by Eugene Delacroix, William Turner, August Vinson, Nikolaos Gyzis, and many others. The textiles and designs emerge to revive a kind of tableau vivant composed by the pleats of foustanela skirt and tsarouxi shoes worn from the heroes prepared for war, the Agamemnon boat owned by the heroic figure of Bouboulina and the jewelry pattern designed on the blouses of Greeks during that time. This year’s narrative is an anniversary to freedom; an opportunity for redefinition; a tribute to the female figure of the time. Strongly artistic and symbolic this new empowering collection serves as a stylistic dialogue that joins the past with the present.
Maria is feeling relaxed, comfortable but above all stylish with Mosho shirt. This style has a unique design. It is made from two different patterns designed originally by ergon Mykonos team and is as two different shirts are combined in one. On one side we have the stemma pattern with a shorter sleeve and on the other the pink mosaic with a longer sleeve. This style features a round neck, asymmetrical hem, loose fit and 3/4 sleeves with different length. Pattern inspiration: “1821”  is a pattern conceived as a “heroic mosaic” composed by different emblems taken from the Greek revolution. Almost like an abstract design the pattern depicts the year of the revolution 1821, the tsarouxi shoe, the scimitar and the fez. Available in three different colors, mauve, yellow, pink. Pattern inspiration: stemma is a pattern inspired from a painting found at the Archeological Museum in Heraklion Crete. The hero was depicted wearing a shirt having a decorative motive exactly like the one knitted on our fabric. Style inspiration: Mosho style is conceived as one piece combined by two half parts. The idea here is to recreate the torn clothes after the battles in our way.
