Oh, THAT Macdonald tartan. Got me one of those, but no good pleat shots....
Soooo
Just laid out the kilt (USA Kilts semi-trad), and rumpled the pleats a bit to hopefully show the pleating better.
Here you go. Hope its helpful. Sure is a busy tartan.

And the Modern Macdonald is a symmetric tartan. Only the Dress MacDonald is asymmetric.

Never seen this Macdonald tartan pleated to stripe that I remember. You could check the multitude of Clan Donald websites for picies if you haven't already, or maybe you could pin it up yourself and see if its possible...seems a very busy tartan to pleat to stripe but what do I know...?

I agree, it looks best pleated to the sett.

Don't let him kid you - Ron knows A LOT about kilts! And he's right - awfully busy to pleat this one to the stripe.

Barb,
Thanks for the advice. I was able to talk the client into pleating to the sett.
