Perth's leaders in Kilt Hire and Kilt Making
Heather and Jim Anderson bought The House of Tartan in 2007.
With the largest range of hire kilts available here in Perth, we are growing continuously. We have a range of items for sale in the shop, and if we don't have it on the shelf, we can usually bring it in from Scotland for you.
Along with our Kilt Hires and miscellaneous retail sales, we offer a high quality kiltmaking service. Kilts are made here on the premises from 100% pure wool milled in Scotland.
In 1995 Greg and Mandy Chapman started this kilt hire business and it has not stopped growing since then.
Our aim is to provide the Scottish, Irish, Welsh and Cornish communities here in Western Australia with a helpful and quality service.
We are able to source tartans, tartan products, regalia and novelty items direct from suppliers in Scotland and other regions of the United Kingdom.
Please spend some time browsing this site and feel free to contact us by e-mail if you have any suggestions or questions.
With over 170 kilts in our Hire Range, Perth Kilt Hire is the leader in Scottish Outfitting here in Western Australia.

Kilts outfits available up to size 60" (5X).
