Gordon Modern tartan

The tartan

A clan/family tartan. The Gordon tartan is the regimental tartan of the Gordon Highlanders.

The kilt

My second kilt, bought around 1997/98. In fact, this kilt, made ny renowned Kinloch Anderson in Edinburgh is what is called a kilted skirt, meaning it is intended for women to wear. It is a 3-yard skirt in pure new wool, and the main differences compared to a men's kilt are tiny buckles and straps and the tartan weight. Probably it is 8 or perhaps only 6 oz. It closes to the right like on men's kilts.
