Greetings,

I am seeking advice on the "MacDonald of the Isles, Red Modern, woven from Lochcarron. My clan is MacDonald Clanranald, and I would like to know is it wrong for me to wear MacDonald of the Isles, is that actually a clan, or is it a generalized tartan for all MacDonalds? I certainly do not want to offend or do something improper when wear the tartan. I have the Clanranald modern and ancient but really like this tartan and don't know if its associated with a clan or for all MacDonalds

Secondly, I would assume any clan MacDonald can wear the MacDonald Dress. Is that correct? I don't know enough about the proper formalities of wearing of clan tartans, and really don't want to mislead, or offend another clan. Can somebody help me and clear this up.

Thanks
