A new look for Kimpton Charlotte Square's team

Kimpton Charlotte Square is proud to announce their collaboration with leading Scottish brand KESTIN to design a new unisex look for front of house staff and concierges.

In a first for this internationally acclaimed Edinburgh-based label, KESTIN and Kimpton Charlotte Square have come together to create a more modern and inclusive look for the hotel’s team with sustainable, quality pieces that suit all staff.

The exclusive KESTIN x Kimpton collaboration reflects Kimpton’s ethos of diversity and inclusivity with two seasonal pieces that help champion the individuality of its team. Front of house has been styled in an exclusive ‘KESTIN x Kimpton’ Vineyard Green Rosyth Shirt Jacket, a versatile workwear-inspired overshirt dyed to this custom colour to complement the interior design features of the hotel, while concierges have been fitted in the Edinburgh Overcoat in navy check inspired by ‘Americana’ traditional textiles, blankets and colourways, and fused with a traditional Scottish check reference.

At Kimpton, we proudly embrace diversity and love to work with local partners to create a distinctively unique guest experience – yet we have a global outlook, making KESTIN a great fit for our hotel and brand.


“We wanted to create a more modern and inclusive look for our team with sustainable, quality pieces that suit all staff and reflect our brand. We embrace diversity and work with local partners to create a distinctively unique guest experience, yet we have a global outlook. This fits well with the KESTIN brand”.
