THE RUSKIN KILT

This Italian jacquard twill is a silk-wool mix that has that has pleated up well into a sharp,
special occasion kilt. The side pleat design uses Kingussie style pleating at each hip with
lime silk piping set into the seams. Hand crafted leather work forms a unique kilt strap wrapping around each hip, fixed with riveting front and back. My handwritten lining is a reminder of Ruskin’s wise words, which feature in our exhibition at the York Art Gallery; Ruskin, Turner & the Storm Cloud.
