Duchess, NOT IGNORANCE IMHO. but perhaps unfamiliarity.
The "LAIRD"S PLAID" is Large (it is as I said "a Car Robe stadium blanket" type item. IE - BLANKET. (not a "fashion" item, (like a "fly Plaid" but FUNCTIONAL.) Although there is no "standard" size 4' x 8' is "common"

Here is a pic. Note the Gent on the far left

Normally if I simply had it "draped"off the shoulder, it would have been doubled (length wise) & appear similar to the other Gents

Here is a pic of me wearing one (period attire0 The pic on the Right is how I was actually wearing it as I "strolled" down the street.
And yes the Plaids are the same size.

I hope this helps.

BTW If you can find more Info. PLEASE SHARE.
