There are two – maybe three – things I think about when I think tartan.
Myths about Scottish heritage, its ubiquity amongst the snobby set, and punk.
I found some fantastic tartan fabric at Marshall Fabric and while I first thought they might become pants (after all, what’s more punk than tartan pants?), this dress by Tiana Herring caught my fancy instead!
Join me as I make the Juniper Dress by Tiana Herring and talk about tartan, plaid, and resistance.
