          about
        
        
          the
        
        
          manufacturing
        
        
          process, the store’s Scottish
        
        
          Kiltmaker Visitor Centre has
        
        
          all the answers. Here, you can
        
        
          visit the workshop where the
        
        
          tartan takes shape and form,
        
        
          gradually transforming into
        
        
          the distinctive Highland dress.
        
        
          Such essential questions such
        
        
          as ‘How much cloth is needed
        
        
          to make a kilt?’ and ‘What’s the
        
        
          perfect length for my kilt?’ will
        
        
          be answered, though you may
        
        
          find the staff more coy when
        
        
          asked ‘...and what does a true
        
        
          Scotsman wear under it?’ The
        
        
          garments to be found here
        
        
          are the genuine article; all of
        
        
          Highland House of Fraser’s kilts
        
        
          are made to strict traditional
        
        
          methods and painstakingly
        
        
          stitched by hand. Traditional
        
        
          handcraft styles include The

          using less fabric include The
