With regard to what was banned by Proscription, tha actual wording is "the clothes commonly called Highland clothes (that is to say) the Plaid, Philabeg, or little Kilt, Trowse, Shoulder-belts, or any part whatever of what peculiarly belongs to the Highland Garb; and that no tartan or party-coloured plaid or stuff shall be used for Great Coats or upper coats" - seems a pretty comprehensive list to me!
With regard to your other comment regarding fact or romanticised fiction, this really comes down to who (whom?) you believe and in these earlier posts I was always careful to only include comments/views from recognised leading world authorities where the source of information was given and could be cross-checked either against the original material or confirming views by other authorities.
