The Day Plaid wrapped and pinned in Victorian era

[Stewart of Galloway]

Your new kilt and plaid should be grand. The colours sound very nice.

Here is a photo of me with my plaid on my shoulder. Not folded very well unfortunately. It's not quite long enough to wrap around. The new one will be.

A great photo! You look very dapper indeed What tartan is that?
Something shocked me the other day, my kilt makers who are excellent, extremely experienced (40 years) and Scottish trained, have never made a Day Plaid! ( They make heaps of Fly, Piper's and Drummer's plaids).
They hadn't even heard of it until I explained. Blew me out, it just shows how far we have fallen ha ha. I have that book from the 40's I mentioned above and every third Scotsman has a day plaid. Not just Laird's by any means.
Anyhow it's very cool that you have one and are getting another one made. It's good to please yourself in this world and wear what you wish and what suits your taste.
I love the cosy down to earth practicality of the Day Plaid. Cheers!
