The Future

Borders Textile Towerhouse works together with the Borders textile industry, Heriot-Watt University and other education providers to offer research resources for fashion and design students.

We hope you’ll be inspired by our ever-changing catwalk displays, sample garments, swatch books, and vintage and contemporary classics.

We also provide a taste of the textile world to come, with high-tech innovations such as laser etching and Shima WHOLEGARMENT™ technology.

We’re proud that fabulous young designers such as Tammy Kane were trained in the Borders, and now their talents have gone global!
