A STARZ Original Series From Executive Producer Ronald D. Moore: Outlander

[Tobus]

When I saw this photo for the series, I felt mesmerized. I want so much to make a ladies outfit like this one. Of course the man's attire is really nice, too. I've made several breacan feile. But something else called out to me, too. The man's tartan looks to me very much like the the MacKay Reproduction as woven by D.C.Dalgliesh. Just last week I finished making a kilt in that tartan so this photo really has a hold on me.

I was a little disappointed in the tartan he is wearing in the photo. He's a Fraser, for crying out loud. There are numerous references in the books to the fact that his tartan is red. Why did they make his costume a non-red tartan?

The boots are a little pirate-like and over the top too, IMHO.
