| Mac Millan was founded in 1997 by its designer
Jane McMillan who wanted to carve a niche in the fashion universe
with her unique vision of colour and texture.
Jane was born on the South West coast of Scotland in the
small sea-side town of Stranraer which has been a major
source of inspiration for her print designs. She moved to
London to study womenswear at The London Fashion Institute
where she won many awards for design including one from
The British Council presented by Lady Diana, The Princess
of Wales.
Jane further enhanced her skills in the fashion houses
of Ally Capellino, Bella Freud, and with fashion legend,
Ossie Clark. She has also been a visiting lecturer at Central
Saint Martins College and, rather than work at international
fashion house Jill Sander, launched her first collection
which was stocked by London boutique "Koh Samui".
Original printed silks create an intoxicating synergy of
fresh modern silhouettes which are immaculately finished
wearable pieces. The whole infused with a creativity that
makes Mac Millan collections unique in the fashion landscape.
As Collezioni World Book says
."The highly
feminine image derives from fluid sensual dresses. Carefully
selected materials are highly recherché so as to
highlight her idea of women. Originally worked fabrics complete
this seductive and refined look"
Mac Millans' goal is to consolidate its position as a leading
fashion brand crafting innovative collections for a receptive
market. In September 2004 they made their catwalk debut
at New York Fashion Week with an audience consisting of
the fashion worlds opinion formers. Seductive dresses have
captured the interest of the worldwide press and become
a favourite with celebrities including Sarah Ferguson The
Duchesse of York, Dannii Minogue, Lady Isabella Hervey,
Nicola Roberts from Girls Aloud, Paris Hilton and Joan Kaner
of Neiman Marcus.
