"From Scotland with Love…"
Mac Millan rock Tokyo Design Week

Mac Millan showcase an eclectic new collection of summer prints at Tokyo Design week from 29th October to 3rd November 2008.

Summer 2009 Mac Millan, renowned for original, digitally printed silks and a unique vision of colour and texture, present an intoxicating melange of floral and geometric patterns. Designer Jane McMillan, inspired by her Scottish Heritage, creates fresh, innovative shapes that personify femininity on silk crepe de chine, jersey and chiffon.

The highlight of the collection will be a couture peacock dress that uses a vivacious palette of colour and is embellished with hand made folds. This exciting piece was produced in partnership with Scottish Enterprise and CAT (Centre for Advanced Textiles) who have collaborated to push textile boundaries, developing a revolutionary, exciting technique, to digitally print Mac Millan's exclusive "From Scotland with Love" designs onto wool delaine by means of a chlorination process.

Editor Notes:
Mac Millan has showcased collections "on schedule" at New York Fashion Week via catwalk presentations since 2004 and in 2007 made their runway debut during London Fashion Week. Nominated for Scottish Designer of the Year in 2007, founder Jane McMillan has a long and highly experienced history of design, working with the likes of Bella Freud and Fashion legend Ossie Clark, following graduation from The London Fashion Institute and is also a consultant to the British Government's Advisory Board for Fashion & Textiles.
