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.
