tartan free
by Antonia Leslie

The Limi Feu show marched down the catwalk to the sound of bagpipes but there was no tartan to be seen. Instead there were the colours of the moors in Scotland, pale misty blue with springlike flowers, soft greys like wet rocks and the beige of winter grasses However the shapes seemed more from the real wild west of America with raised bowler hats, over sized jackets and coats and just over the border Mexican Indian capes. Suddenly we moved into black and white Japanese tailoring and special cutting. Clinched waists white shirts and beautiful flat pleats suspended on a trouser yoke. And yet another change to bright colours and an almost harlequin print with matching clown boots. Don"t blink you might miss something.
