DUNDEE RAINCOAT
Designer Kerrie Alexander has joined forces with textile company Halley Stevensons to create a raincoat for the Victoria & Albert (V&A) Museum’s Dundee outpost. The raincoat, produced under the designer’s KerrieALDO fashion label, is made using waterproof waxed cotton, a fabric Halley Stevensons pioneered more than 150 years ago and which it continues to manufacture at its Baltic Works factory in Dundee. Each of the 20 numbered raincoats and matching bags were hand-cut and crafted using unique patterns created for the collaboration. The coat was priced at £200, while the matching bag was £45, and went on sale in the V&A Dundee’s shop. kerriealdo.com
