This kilt is the second collaboration with New York stylist Melissa Ventosa Martin, as part of her collection of modern heirlooms at Old Stone Trade. These timeless classics of enduring quality and style are considered pieces produced by small scale artisans across the globe.
The Tilda kilt uses cloth created by the social enterprise from South-East England, Romney Tweed, who are revitalising wool production on the marshes where Romney sheep have roamed for centuries. This striking deep black tweed with yellow overcheck refers to Prospect Cottage, home of the late film maker Derek Jarman who transformed this fishermans hut into a retreat and sculpture garden.
The kilt is made to order exclusively through Old Stone Trade in a very limited number with customised finishing details. The Newchurch Kilt can also be commissioned using Romney Tweed with a matching bespoke blazer by J.Mueser.
