Johnstons of Elgin showcased new cutting edge lightweight textiles and knit innovations with their SS19 collection during London Fashion Week at the Waldorf Hilton Hotel. Johnstons of Elgin is a Scottish cashmere brand with a woollen mill in Elgin, especially concerned with the preservation of traditional craft, and ensuring the conservation of special and increasingly rare skills.

 

The SS19 presentation featured a tropical palette of pastels, hot pink, lemon and electric blue were merged with cool neutrals to add contrast and depth to the looks. Guests observed the cutting edge collection from all angles, whilst the models were the central feature of the room. The collection as a whole was innovative and feminine, aiming to highlight the year round wearability of cashmere.
