Le Kilt is a small, independent Scottish womenswear brand launched in 2014 and made in Scotland by expert craftspeople using natural materials. Its approach to sustainability is centred on working with a handful of small-scale British manufacturers, reducing wastage, supporting skilled local communities, and encouraging customers to invest in quality and care for garments over time. The brand has also stated a preference for made-in-Scotland and made-in-UK fabrics that last and hold their structure, and has said it does not want to work with synthetic fabrics going forward. Its sustainability position is closely tied to craft, longevity, and buying less but better.

Le Kilt Sustainability Actions

Made in Scotland

Since launching in 2014, Le Kilt has been proudly made in Scotland by expert craftspeople using the finest natural materials; a small, independent business rooted in both the highlands and cityscapes that shape what modern Scottish culture means to us.

Works with small manufacturers

By working with a handful of small-scale British manufacturers we enable our customers to think sustainably and invest in quality; reducing wastage, supporting skilled local communities, and building more authentic, conscious connections with their clothes through understanding where they come from.

Slower fashion approach

In 2018 it ditched the feigned charade of London Fashion Week in favour of the slower, more conscientious Craft Week. For McCoach, ticking off the seasonal checklist felt tired, wasteful and disingenuous.
