Tweed is originally an Irish and British garment. It was mainly used to make outdoor clothing such as hunting jackets or pants. The main reason for this was that this material is both water-resistant and very durable.
Ater Coco Chanel used the tweed for the famous collection of blazers and skirts, and other big brands in the fashion industry have also used it.
If you think this material is still only for hunters, you are not entirely right. It’s still used in the UK and the fashion girls love it! A few seasons ago, tweed rock made a return on runway shows and has dominated every season since.
I’ve selected some of the best outfit ideas to show you how to wear this traditional piece of clothing.
