    purple tartan

    I have a Stirling/Bannckburn district tartan which has a lot of purple. In fact my son wore it as part of a wedding where purple was the predominent bride's color choice. Sorry no pics, but you can check out the "tartan book" for more info.

    Not exactly tartan ...

    ... but if you are considering making your own kilt, there's this auction on eBay. The color is indigo in bright, natural light; but under other common lighting conditions it's purple.
    It's not my auction, but I did buy some for kiltmaking.

    This is Marton Mills´ "Warrior" tartan:


    And this is the kilt:
