A Lasses Wear Thread

[Retro Red]

Now that I know about the "other women", I guess I'll have to stop wearing skirts below the knee.

And don't forget the fishnet stockings!

F-H.C.A.G, you look fantastic. Don't you know that classy and demure is the thing that drives men wild? (Especially if you add fishnets to the modest kilted skirt.)

[The F-H.C.A.G.]

You should know Arlen-you obviously have a very classy lady! I think the picture in this thread may be the first picture of her I've seen-she's beautiful!

I'm sure she's been shown off elsewhere, and I've just been too generally unobservant to notice.

Be well,

Yes, I do try to show her off as often as possible.
I am a very lucky man. But then, there are a lot of lucky men of this community, eh?

There sure are. I just wish I could get my wife on the other side of the camera so that everyone could see more pictures of us together.

Hello,
I'm a female newbie. I am attending a Scottish wedding in Sept. & trying to figure out how to wear my family tartan. I love this thread. I've been reading it for hours & have learned a lot.
I'm hoping to come up with something simple yet dramatic. I will be surrounded by a lot of kilts after all. One question. Do women wear fly plaids?

Crumbs!Me advising a lady on womens clothing!This could be tricky!No, women don't wear fly plaids,what they do wear is a tartan sash when wearing a long dress.You are entering into a mine field as to which shoulder the sash goes over and even after 60 odd years I have still not worked it all out.

Wear a tartan dress or skirt and that will be fine,but as you will be surrounded by men in kilts don't,please,try to copy them ----there is absolutely nothing so embarrassing as seeing a lady guest at a wedding overdoing the tartan bit.You girls have far more subtle ways of including tartan into your get up than us gaudy males!

Now I am diving for cover!!!

[Stratherrick]

Sorry for the ignorance, but what's "fly plaid"?

As for our lady posting, sometimes less is more. As Jock said, us male peacocks are sooo OTT at times!

A fly plaid is the gents version of the sash for women.

I personally prefer the Mini-Rosette sash.

PS. On my way tomorrow to Scotland for the World Gathering of Clan MacIntyre! Whoo Hoo!
Taking 1 teenager (13 yo), my 85 yr old mum, and my oldest daughter (23) & her husband. Wish me luck!
I made 3 skirts, 2 shawls 2 hair scrunchies, 1 headband and one armband for daughter's husband (he's not a MacIntyre). A Walters.
I bought a kilted skirt for youngest daughter to wear! I just didn't have time to make her a kilted skirt myself.
