New kilt in an older style

[figheadair]

What about pre19th century examples? Don't remember seeing a fringe on the plaid found on one of the bog bodies?

None of the clothes in the Scottish bog burials are ‘Highland Clothes’ and so any ‘plaid’ (not that I can think on an example) is therefore comparable with the style dating to the early 19th century being discussed here. The burial at Dungiven in Ireland, which ‘may’ be of a Scottish/Highland mercenary, includes a mantle but again, it is not the garment being discussed here.
