Just keeping you abreast of the latest addition to The Kilt Kollection, as is my wont!

No.78 comes in the form of a TFCK three-piece kilt suit in fine, lightweight navy and grey pinstripe wool. I needed a new kilt suit anyway but since I had been invited to the 'Wedding of the Year' in Scotland, I decided to order one that was suitable for this occasion. The buttons are antiqued Celtic, and the lining of the jacket and waistcoat is silver satin which I was able to carry through in the silk tie worn with a pink shirt. Here are two photos of the suit taken at home a week after the event:





The wedding was that of Howie Nicholsby of TFCK/Geoffrey (Tailor) in Edinburgh and it took place in the open air, on the shores of Loch Etive near Oban. I was honoured to be asked to give a reading during the ceremony of Robert Burns' "My Love is Like a Red, Red Rose" after which, his bride took a red rose from her bouquet and handed it to Howie - a very touching gesture. The second reading was given by TV Presenter, Gail Porter.

When I get my pictures sorted, I will post one or two of the wedding here.
