Georgeous! Both of them! The gown is indeed stunning and its understated elegance goes so well with the kilt! That looks like it was a great reception! Makes me long to repeat ours! I think I ended every sentence with an exclamation point! Well, they are all deserved!
It's the USA Bicentennial (now called the USA St. Andrews Society). Lochcarron used to weave it in Strome weight, but, when Ken decided on this tartan, I discovered, much to my dismay, that they no longer weave it. I posted a thread on this forum asking if anyone had any to sell. MacWage had gotten some on eBay awhile back, and he had more than he needed. I ordered some tartan that he wanted from Lochcarron, and we swapped. I love this forum!

The Tartan still comes up occasionally on EBay. Usually about $15.00 a yard depending on the exchange rate. I got some a while back and had a kilt made. I love it but it is bright in daylight.
