NEW COLLECTION: Status by Ethos

ethos status

Ethos’ new Status collection was inspired by the work of two Dutch artists from the late Medieval period, Hieronymus Bosch and Peter Brueghel.

The avant-garde painters’ work featured illustrations of moral or religious concepts and themes of the common man at work in earthy tones offset with shades of teal and and pomegranate. Details of light catching hair and strongly depicted women both influence Ethos’ newest collection.

Here, Ethos presents a step by step to recreate a key looks from the new collection.
