Brighton Pride Kilt -details
I had hoped to post some pics of my new kilt for Pride a few weeks ago, but the weather was awful and we didn't get any chances to get some good shots, so yesterday we had some time to hand
The fabric is a 80% heavy linen mix, which I screen printed with a design I used many years ago for a refurbishment project in Covent Garden, london of architectural images.
It's machine sewn with double knife pleats, which really give the fabric a lot more swing
and in a slightly formal look

Wonderful photography as always Paul, and a smashing kilt to boot. I love the double box pleat, the other day at the tartan shop with Sir William the shop owner could not get enough of his Lady Chrystel Double Box Pleated kilt.

Cool kilt. It looks like it belongs in a modern art museum. Plus, I really like that heavy material.

If we are choosing favourites, this is the one for me. The whole kilt seem to be in a fluid motion.

That linen fabric sounds interesting. How difficult is it to press a double box pleat kilt?
I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

Did you create the design you silk screened as well?
Cheers
