We are all feeling very patriotic here in the office this week. With thoughts, of the much-anticipated birth of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s baby, we are all on the edge of our seats waiting for this historic moment to happen. Other events that are coming up this month that make us proud to be British are the Henley Royal Regatta and the Hampton Court Flower Show. We are also highly anticipating the success of Andy Murray in Wimbledon this year.
The designers at Cotswold Collections are always striving to use and produce their fabric and garments in the British Isles. We have picked a few of these completely British pieces to be highlighted within this blog.
Our trellis silk scarf has been hand-printed by our Gloucestershire based artisan partner ‘Beckford Silk’. Each scarf has been finished with a hand-rolled hem. To see how they do this read our blog on Beckford Silk.
Our traditional all-round knife pleat skirt is both woven and made in Britain. The fabric has been woven in Britain by the mill Peter MacArthur. This Scottish made pleat skirt is perfect for the changing season and is fully lined with pleats sewn down to the hip.
The sky blue and vanilla tweed blazer is a quintessential British piece and is a must for every women’s wardrobe. The blazer is made of a wool tweed which is woven and made in Britain. Due to the luxurious fabric, this garment will need to be dry-cleaned.
