Tartan name ??

This is a total shot-in-the-dark, but if XMTS doesn't know than nobody does, right?

Does anybody recognize this tartan? perhaps by name?

Sadly, the only image that I have.

It may be an optical illusion or even the way the pleats are but I am not seeing a Tartan here.

It appears to me that the pattern is not the same vertically and horizontally.
I am seeing vertical red and white stripes but no corresponding stripes horizontally.
Horizontally I see the bands of three dark stripes, and unless they are hidden within the pleats, I don't see them vertically.

I don't think you have a Tartan here. Where did you see this.

Elsie would call it a "Bastard tartan"....

MacTablecloth of Glenspoon.

I kid. In all seriousness, though, I think it is probably a fashion plaid rather than a tartan but I'm not an expert by any means. Just my tuppence. I like that shade of blue, though.

I see what you are saying , but I think that is a bit of an optical illusion , I believe it is actually the edge of a pleat . If that was a true kilt , the fringe would be on the opposite side ( of course not all aprons are fringed ) .

Not sure what this garment actually is , but it doesn't appear to be a kilt nor does it appear to be an actual tartan . However , it does appear to resemble a kilt . Just my observation .

I'm no expert on these things, having never worn such a garment, but I think the technical term for it may be "skirt".
