    No, it's not from her or anyone else's arisaid. In fact, I doubt very much that Lady Anne, given her social rank, would have ever worn an arisaid which, in any event, was probably outdated as a form of dress by that date and not widely used.

    Could it have come from a coat, perhaps worn by household staff? A weak guess, but I am stumped. It`s been fun learning a bit about the Mackintoshes and Moy Hall though.

    No, not a coat. Come on guys, think Highland Dress.
