Created and organised by LocalMotive Markets and a fantastic team as well support, fashionABLE was a great success, so many inspiring people involved from all walks of life. This event inspired by Stacy Paris and Raygan Bold, two amazing people.

This event is all about making fashion for real people, about inclusivity and diversity and bringing great designers to the catwalk, their designs modelled by regular people.

We had a great turn out of people as well press and media and here we share some great memories with you.

Braw Kilts was set up this year by Jack Hope. After not being able to find a steady job after he left school, Jack decided to set up his own kilt business in Edinburgh. Jack is very passionate about all things Scottish and set up Braw Kilts to showcase the great quality of the kilt making craft. Braw Kilts takes pride in knowing that all of their kilts are made to the highest standard by a kilt maker who has over 30 years experience in making Traditional/Bespoke Hand Sewn Kilts.
Braw Kilts make Traditional/Bespoke Hand Sewn Kilts and also make and design tweed kilts using a variety of the finest tartans available with both traditional styling and traditional with a modern twist. They can also add a solid fringe to the kilt to make it personalised and have three different choices of coloured straps that clients can pick from.

We are excited to have our FashionABLE poster up and running! So feel free to share it and spread the word about this great event encouraging DIVERSITY & INCLUSIVITY in the fashion industry.
