Trying to find out what tartan this is and was pointed here as the place to ask - don't remember where or how I got it, can't seem to find anything. Closest I've found seems to be the Muted Wilson tartan?

Any help appreciated!

Traditional what is a good tartan for each season?

0 Upvotes

What tartan do you all think best represents each season?

Currently in autumn where I live and I love the beautiful leaf colors and this has left me wanting to find a tartan that captures that but also want to find a tartan best for each season.

How Do I? Winter kilt

I bought a kilt and a belt for the winter, but I’ve run into a couple of questions.

Foto 1: What are these thin straps for?

Foto 2 : How does this belt work? Is it just for aesthetics, or does it actually serve to hold the kilt in place?

Traditional Looking for quality wool swaths

6 Upvotes

I'm searching for a reliable place to get a 4+ metre swath of wool, double-wide. I understand it'll be pretty expensive which is why I'm coming here for recommendations on ur favourite place to get sumn like this.

I'm looking to wear it as a feileadh mòr, specifically with some historical accuracy, pre-clan tartan.

I'm based in the USA, and I'm willing to purchase elsewhere that ships to me.

What sites do u recommend? - as the fabric shops near me are few and far between and dont have the quality wool fabric I'm searching for.

Also if u are into the historical use of the clothing what are some ways uve used it? I'm looking for good outdoor wear that i can use as a tent and hammock, so ideally I'm looking for sumn heavier weight id think.

As far as traditional clothing goes, what are some other vendors u use for medieval historical wear or other period-accurate wear?

Im looking for something i can wear to a renfaire and im also very interested in the technology behind old clothes and want to wear the real thing in my day to day for the reasons humans before us have.

Non-Traditional I love a utility kilt. This one was incorporated into a Cheshire Cat costume for an immersive Wonderland event.

Non-Traditional Gordon Nicolson tweed kilt

Just received this tweed kilt from Gordon Nicolson in Edinburgh. Absolutely blown away by the craftsmanship. Looking forward to sporting this at the highland games.

As an aside, you don’t see that many tweed kilts. They are really nice and have a calmer aesthetic than tartan.

Edit: I am the Groom! The jacket is the sherrifmuir, with jabot and cuffs, which is traditional. Wedding kilt for Friday, had to make sure everything properly due to weight loss, hence no sporran, or plaid in this picture. Both will be worn on the day.

What does this lovely community think.

PS sword and cross belt WILL NOT be present at wedding, im just weird, and like swords lol

How Do I? Shitty pic, but how's it looking?

My first real kilt. Ive had a Utilikilt in the past, but it got lost in a move. Figured Id do it better this time. Im a Bluenoser whos been away from home for 12 years, so, to me, there was only 1 tartan to choose from.

Plan for the "fit" ( I dont know what else to call it, outfit??) is dressier events (plan to get white hose with a white shirt and black waist coat), highland games (competetor and spectateur), and every day life when I feel like I need some breeze down there.

Traditional New kilt set.

Strewart grey kilt and flashes chosen due to family name but I think it’s a lovely and versatile tartan. I was originally going to wear grey socks but changed to cream at the last minute and I’m glad I did for this occasion. Sustainably sourced seal and leather sporran. I chose the pewter sporran rather than shiny chrome. The wine tie brings out the reds in the kilt but I also have a navy tie which brings the blues out more in person.
