Tartan is everywhere now~and so is houndstooth! they never fail to bring out the sophisticated and chic look in a girl! Showing on the catwalks of Just Cavalli, House Of Holland and Ralph Lauren, the checks are sure to bring a tear to any Scot’s eye. As for high street brands we can see that Topshop is full of tartan and plaids too!
"Classic heritage fabrics such as tweed, tartan and checks featured heavily on the catwalk for Autumn/Winter. Leading the way was British designer Henry Holland who created his own tartan pattern and based his entire House of Holland collection on the indigo fabric. The most memorable piece was a tiered tartan dress modeled by Henry's BFF Agyness Deyn. Dolce & Gabbana produced a D&G line inspired by our very own Queen with neatly tied head scarves and midi-length tartan skirts. The trend has already begun to take over the High Street with Topshop particularly pioneering the style. " quoted from here
