Hire Tartan Spotlight - Scottish Spirit

A modern tartan for the modern wedding... Read on to find out more about Scottish Spirit.

The Scottish Spirit tartan is a striking, contemporary design that embodies the elegance and passion of Scotland. Registered in 2014 it is one of our newer tartans. Woven in shades of soft grey, rich claret, pure white, and vibrant purple, it captures the drama of Scotland’s landscapes and the romance of its traditions. The muted grey provides a calm, modern base, while deep claret adds warmth and depth. Purple, inspired by the bloom of Highland heather, brings a vivid, distinctive flourish, and crisp white highlights give the pattern clarity and definition. The combination is bold yet refined, making this tartan instantly recognisable and effortlessly stylish.

Versatile in its appeal, the Scottish Spirit tartan transitions seamlessly from formal Highland dress to everyday wear and contemporary interiors. Its balanced, fashion-forward colour palette works as well in a full kilt as it does in scarves, shawls, skirts, upholstery, or home accents. Whether chosen to celebrate a personal connection to Scotland or simply to enjoy a piece of timeless design, the Scottish Spirit tartan offers a unique blend of tradition and modern flair — a true reflection of Scotland’s enduring creativity and charm.

We love to pair this tartan with a dark charcoal or light grey jacket. It truly is down to the taste of the wearer. We find that the lighter grey is a lot more popular in Summer and the charcoal in the Winter. 

For your accessories, we recommend a tartan or block colour tie. This tartan allows for the use of reds and purples to accent and highlight the Kilts intricate details.
