Dressed for the Scottish Tartan Festival
The red is the tartan dress for Clan Cameron as shown here.
Sharon is outfitted in her Ariscielh (Ari-say) type of dress. A style from the 1700's, which is becoming popular today with the Scottish lassies. A tartan sash 18''x2 1/2 yards secured to the right shoulder is usually worn with a long white dress as the correct formal wear for the ladies.
Alan is in complete Scottish formal attire with his dress tartan kilt. This is made complete with his Prince Charlie Coat, bow tie, sporan, hose, flashers to hold up the hose and Ghillie Brogues shoes. A vest is worn, which eliminates the need for a belt and buckle. The Clan crest is also identifiable specifically for the Clan along with the tartan. A Sgian Dubh hidden knife is worn inside the hose. Formal wear is worn anywhere the tux is worn and at Scottish events, such as the "Kirking of the Tartans" or "Burns Supper".
