    Tartan to a cèilidh?

    Hi!

    I'm invited to a cèilidh and since I'm not Scottish I was wondering what to wear. Or rather, if it would be ok for me to wear my favourite dress...

    It's a vintage style swing dress (below knee) in the Black Watch tartan. I wear it to different occations in my home country since it's always appropriate, very comfy and works well with different types of dress codes. And I get a lot of compliments on it, too. So, would it be offensive to Scots if I wore it? I'm hoping it would be seen as respectful, since I really love Scotland, but you never know. I have the same dress in the Stewart Dress (Modern) tartan but I don't think that's a "universal" tartan, so I guess that's def not an option.

    I would really, really appreciate your thoughts on the matter!

    Best regards
