Independent Scottish salmon farm, Loch Duart was one of the main sponsors at the recent Dressed to Kilt charity fashion show which took place in New York (Saturday 23rd July) at the iconic Mill Neck Manor on Long Island. The event, which showcases the very best of Scotland, is a major platform for leading fashion designers whose work incorporated a tartan style, inspired by the event\u2019s theme of \u2018Dress for Adventure: From the Highlands to the Hamptons.\u2019<\/p>\n
Mill Neck Manor, built in the early 1920s, is a prestigious venue for film and TV and a favourite shoot location for brands including Johnnie Walker, Ralph Lauren and Mercedes Benz. With Scottish singer Edward Reid performing, guests, dressed in their summer chic and highland couture, were treated to Loch Duart Hors d’oeuvres and an exclusive fashion show featuring a surprise runway appearance from Loch Duart Salmon. Loch Duart\u2019s model sported a Glen Orchy Tweed jacket and waistcoat with Oban Mist tartan supplied by Macgregor and Macduff. All funds raised were donated to the Navy SEAL Foundation.<\/p>\n
Chris Orr, Loch Duart Sales Director said:<\/p>\n
\u201cWe were thrilled for Loch Duart salmon to not only feature on the menu but also on the runway at the Dressed to Kilt fashion show 2022. Some people might ask \u2018what exactly does salmon have to do with fashion?\u2019. Well, like high-end fashion houses Loch Duart is a luxury brand and is served by the most prestigious restaurants in the world. Like many of the fine Scottish textiles and garments on display, Loch Duart salmon is reared with the same spirit of craft and attention to detail to create the world\u2019s best tasting farmed salmon.<\/p>\n
\u201cAt Loch Duart, it\u2019s in our DNA to innovate and do things differently, so we wanted to do something fun to promote our unique Scottish Salmon. The USA is a key market for us, and Loch Duart is much loved by American foodies, chefs, and restaurateurs. We see lots more potential to grow the brand in the coming years ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n
