Irvine Royal Academy Sponsorship
MYB are proud to confirm our continued support to local education with the announcement of an operatic fashion show to be held at Harbourside, Irvine on Friday the 14th March.
MYB sponsored this art project whereby the students of Irvine Royal Academy designed their own fabrics, which they then created into these fantastic costumes. MYB have a long association with Irvine and our designer Sherry Kirkpatrick has very much enjoyed working with the pupils. We would like to congratulate both the students and their teacher Frances Morrison for such dedicated and creative work.

MYB get skirty with Polo Ralph Lauren
MYB Couture, the
apparel division of MYB Textiles has woven it’s
way firmly into the fashion world. Having worked successfully with a
number of National Design Boutiques over the last 4 years our Couture
Division is now utilising it's manufacturing flexibility to create fashion
fabrics for the international catwalk.
The most notable of our International
Developments has been the launch of a skirt design with the Blue Label
Bottoms Brand of Polo Ralph Lauren.
Woven at our mill here in Scotland the Nina Vintage cotton skirt is woven
in 2 ‘pizza pie’ sections that are joined to form this stunning
Safari style skirt. Margo Graham, Divisional Director - ‘We are
known for our open weave fabrics and it is always nice to provide something
that little bit different. Many of our clients probably do not know that
100 year old Nottingham Lace looms can weave solid cloth’ or in
this case a beautiful solid and open weave combination’.
The girls
at Ralph Lauren are a pleasure to work with and the couture design team
is confident that this will be the first of many such projects.
