The clothes in the editorial is a mix of patterns, but there is a distinct predominance on gingham. The outfits vary from dresses to pant suits, and they use knee high socks and pleats to drive the theme home. The backdrop is a picturesque rocky setting which works perfectly with the Scottish inspiration.
