Edinburgh-based designer Katherine Emtage is showcasing her designs at Concrete Wardrobe on Broughton Street next month. Her collection explores the textural and sculptural possibilities of tweed, transforming it from a traditional material redolent of country pursuits in order to use it in contemporary designs for urban living. She explains, “I want people to appreciate tweed as a modern fabric. It’s light, versatile, water-resistant and durable, with a fantastic range of colours and patterns.” Elegant bags that are solid enough to weather the Scottish winter? We like.
