Walker Slater and The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo are proud to announce the launch of their collaborative Harris tweed collection.

Harris Tweed Hebrides have worked in partnership with the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo and its Chief Executive and Producer, Brigadier David Allfrey MBE FRGS, to design a cloth unique to them. The event itself incorporates displays from the British Armed Forces—Army, Navy and Royal Air Force—with a spectacular firework display lighting up the night sky at the end of every performance. The pigment choice illustrates the deep blue of a moody evening sky whilst uniting the military colours in a speckle across the wide herringbone base, much like subtle pyrotechnics.

 

The ladies and gents’ garments, as modelled by Tattoo dancer, Eilidh, and Pipe Director, Steve, are available from the Walker Slater Victoria Street stores alongside the accessories. The Tattoo shop, on Edinburgh’s Cockburn Street, will be holding accessories and a sneak peak of the garments.
