Every year The Friends of Scotland put on a fashion show known as Dressed to Kilt to promote Scottish designers and raise money for a worthy cause. (Proceeds from the last two years have gone to charities that support wounded war vets.)
The theme this year event was Country Chic: "Scottish couture meets country and western."
You might be surprised to learn that, according to their website Dressed to Kilt ranks as the highest profile Scottish event in the world (including Scotland) and one of the top 3 fashion shows in the world (right behind Victoria’s Secret)!
The show his heavy on the kilts, obviously, but the unifying theme is whimsical haute couture with a Scottish sensibility. This is a fun show with a weird mishmash of celebrities, models and athletes of claimed Highland heritage participating. Here are some photos from Tuesday night's event in New York....

As Colin Firth dusts down his tux for this evening's Baftas, his wife Livia will be highlighting the world of eco couture in an upcycled Gary Harvey dress. It's all part of her Green Carpet Challenge
We find ourselves deep into the 2011 awards season. Tonight London hosts the Baftas, at which Colin Firth will attempt to follow last year's win for A Single Man with another best actor gong for The King's Speech (in the process becoming the first actor to win twice in a row since Rod Steiger in the 1960s). In January Firth strode up the world's longest red carpet to pick up awards at the Golden Globes and also the Critics' Choice Awards. Next up is the 83rd Academy Awards, which will take place in Los Angeles on 27 February, and this year the official pre-Oscar show will be extended to 90 minutes as amblings on the red carpet...
