Tartan, a patterned fabric featuring intersecting horizontal and vertical bands of varying colours, is commonly associated with Scotland and its national dress. Despite its Scottish roots, tartan has become a popular fashion choice, appearing in magazines as early as the Victorian and Edwardian eras and experiencing a resurgence during the punk movement of the 1970s. This season, tartan is particularly on-trend for its ability to create a high fashion print mash-up look.
Tartan dressmaking fabric is not only fashionable but also durable, comfortable, and timeless, making it a popular choice for men. A functional and stylish tartan shirt will never go out of style. All of our fashionable Scottish fabrics, including our polyester and viscose mix tartan fabrics, are manufactured in the UK and are 150cm wide. We offer a variety of patterns, such as Blackwatch Tartan, Royal Stewart Tartan, and Lindsey Tartan, all of which boast bold colours and patterns.
In addition to creating clothing, tartan fabric can also be used to make bold accessories like bags and tops. And of course, tartan kilts remain a staple of Scottish fashion. Our tartan fabrics are not just for fashion, though – they're also perfect for any craft projects you may have in mind. Whether you're using it to create clothing or something entirely unique, tartan fabric is a versatile and fashionable choice.
