Presenting : The Double Box Tweed "Bunker"
We all know that a 'TANK' is defined as an eight-yard, wool, hand-sewn, traditional kilt. ie., "It's built like a tank." (coined by Jimmy Carbomb c.2005).
My Lady Chrystel was happy to show her light tweed kilt outfit a few weeks ago. Now she is proud to present the "BUNKER" ! her latest Double box Pleated tweed kilt.
This is a 6 yard, 22oz tweed kilt. Water proof, wind proof, (bullet proof ? ), so heavy that we gave it this name : the "bunker".
The swish is dramatically sensuous, voluptuous.
It will probably be the only one of it's kind for it takes twice as much time to built compared to a "normal" DBPK.
Ideal for winter, it will keep me toasty when it really gets cold out here.

This is in front of our house with our dog "Ripaille"

The "Bunker" !

Well... back to work !
Best,
Robert
