Red Carpet Looks Inspired By Scotland

The Scotland Kilt Company offers a wonderful range of tartan kilts and kilt packages to order or hire for any special event. When we look at fashion over the last century tartan has featured in many different styles and trends. Although Scottish inspired prints can be found on the high street there is nothing better than having your clan tartan crafted by the hands of specialist tailors. Special occasions are the ideal place to celebrate your heritage and wear your clan tartan with pride and honour, so much so, it is not uncommon to find a celebrity sporting a kilt or tartan prints to a red carpet or televised event.

Who Has Been Spotted In Tartan Kilts?

The past winter season has seen a rise in tartan pattern again with designers such as Vivienne Westwood and Karl Lagerfeld using tartan print and highland influences in their 2013 winter collections. Everyone from Kate Middleton to Cara Delevingne has been seen sporting the print, the UK’s own Glamour magazine says Tartan is “the classic print hailing from the Highlands with which fashion has an enduring love affair – and this season Tartan is very much back on the style agenda.” * Over recent years prestigious and red carpeted events have seen many recognised faces donning leather and tartan kilts, including:

• Gerrard Butler at the premier of his film Law Abiding Citizen (2009)
• Vin Diesel at The MTV Awards (2003)
• Sean Connery at The MTV Awards (2010)
• Jean Paul Gaultier at The GQ Men Of The Year Awards (2013)
• Kanye West at the South by South West Festival (March, 2014)

This goes to show that highland style has been influencing our style for many years and is still going strong today. The reason tartan out lives the current trends is its timeless appeal, Purvaja Sawant from iDiva says tartan “has scope and can be used for various types of ensembles” making it incredibly versatile as it can be worn day to day or at formal occasions.
