What is Traditional Highland Dress?

[artificer]

It is not unusual, even traditional in fact, that Scottish ladies as in this case the Duchess of Rothsay, to wear a modicum of their husbands tartan whilst out and about. My wife does, on occasion, and I like that she wants to very much. and I do not consider that itis "mirroring" in any way.

Jock,
my apologies, I personally think the Duchess looks quite fine. I was responding to the post by JSFMACLJR regarding 'women can wear anything they want', as it pertains to persons of a certain status, and the inevitable photo-taking.

I also wasn't specific enough in my statement. When I spoke of mirroring PC's outfit I was referring to the below image, where the Duchess and PC appear to be wearing the same outfit, with gender appropriate modifications.

The outfit, were she not standing next to PC, would be delightful, but when the two stand together it appears that they could be wearing a uniform.
Other than that, her tailoring looks impeccable, and in the balance of the photos, I think she pairs up quite nicely with HRH.

My apologies for any confusion or unintended slight.

This photo does appear to be a lttle too cute, I will admit. I think the Duchess's jacket should have been made up in Balmoral tartan to make a suit...but I'm no fashion designer!
