Last year, I couldn't believe my eyes when tartan started to become a trend for A/W, 'YES' I selflessly screamed in my head as I thought of my chosen Art & Design topic - Subculture: Punk - in my head. I decided to keep that theme running for this year and apparently so have a lot of designers.
Vivienne Westwood, who practically invented Punk, has dared to show a bit of Tartan this season in her collection:
1. Faded Tartan Whisper Jacket - Anglomania A/W 2014 (viviennewestwood.com)
"Vivienne Westwood’s Faded Tartan Whisper Jacket adorns a contemporary shape this Autumn/Winter 2014-15 and reflects the impacts of global warming. This wool-woven jackets subtle peplum cut creates a feminine silhouette which is enhanced by draping lapels and a single button fastening at the waist, while the asymmetric high collar provides a sophisticated finish."
2. A/W 2014 Red Label (style.com)
3. Gold Label A/W 2014 (viviennewestwood.com)
4. Tartan Colbalt Blue Satchel (forzieri.com)
"Winter Tartan Cobalt Blue Satchel is stunningly crafted in blue winter tartan and eco leather details in a folded design which conceals an outer pocket with golden orb detail to finish off the iconic look. Featuring double rolled handles, top zip closure, internal zip pocket and gold tone signature detail. Please note that due to the cut of the fabric the tartan design will vary from bag to bag. Signature dust bag included. Made in Italy."
I hope this has inspired you to buy some tartan this year, even if it's just a statement accessory.
