    does "Dress" in "Dress Tartan" mean "from a woman's garment"
    Interesting question... I had never heard of anyone claiming they were for womens' dresses. I have always seen them described as simply "more formal" tartans for evening attire as a replacement for the standard tartan (with no distinction by gender).

    Okay...just to clarify...in my less than humble, and entirely useless opinion...I'll purchase a kilt in a dress tartan any time I have the hankerin' for it and I'll wear anyplace, anytime, "I" feel like wearing it. Don't see any special rules attached to dress tartans.
