What Tartan Did David Tennant Wear To The BAFTA's?

The 77th BAFTA’s took place on the 18th of February and while the room was filled with the usual pageantry, there was one outfit that stood out from the rest. Award winning actor David Tennant graced the awards wearing a kilt, not just any kilt, a MacGregor and MacDuff kilt.

The host of the awards chose a very contemporary look to highlight his Scottish nationality. From the bottom up, David chose to wear a pair of very stylish ghillie brogue boots. These are a contemporary twist to formal brogues and are great for pairing with both formal and casual kilt outfits. We were thrilled to hear that this was what David wanted to wear as we have been a big fan of ghillie boots for a long time.

He wanted something contemporary and while we may be a bit biased, our Mist range tartans are as contemporary as it gets. We showed him our 6 exclusive tartans and let him pick his favorite. He chose our first ever exclusive tartan, Silver Mist.

So while Silver Mist isn’t connected to a traditional Scottish clan, instead it celebrates and represents Scotland’s natural beauty. With shades of grey and black, it is also one of the most versatile tartans available, seamlessly matching any jacket and accessory option.

Our kilts have been around the world and been on many red carpets but this may just be the pinnacle. To have such an iconic actor in one of our kilts was a real pleasure and we are overjoyed to see how David and his team managed to weave traditional highland dress into a standout modern outfit.
