Men's plaid skirt is a traditional dress in which part of Britain?

Plaid skirt is a traditional dress in the highlands of Scotland.

Scottish Gaelic: fèileadh is a knee-length skirt with a checkered pattern on the fabric.

The history of Scottish skirts can be traced back to16th century. At first, it was a full-length woolen cloth with a width of 50 to 60 inches and a maximum length of 7 yards (about 6.4 meters). It is folded and wrapped around the body. The upper part is a shawl robe and the lower part is a skirt.

This early skirt has a single color or different plaid patterns, and its style reflects the wealth of the wearer.

1In the 1920s, Thomas Rawlingson, a Quaker, and Iain MacDonnell, the head of MacDonald family Lake Gary-Grand Canyon, joined hands to collect charcoal.

The traditional clothes worn by the highland people he hired were too long to work.

So rawlinson cut the lower part of the shawl robe into a short skirt.

He and his partner Ian McDonald began to wear this improved Scottish dress.

When Scottish workers saw the short skirts worn by their leaders, they followed suit.

There is evidence that a half-length Scottish skirt appeared at the end of17th century, but rawlinson's improved short skirt is the earliest recorded example of internal seam, which is an important feature of modern Scottish short skirt.

Because James Party has a large number of supporters in Scotland, especially in the highlands of Scotland, in 1746, King George II of England issued a decree prohibiting wearing Scottish skirts, and the ban was not lifted until 1782.

1In the 1920s, the Scottish skirt became the symbol of the whole Scotland, and as a traditional dress of the Scottish Highlands, it was gradually accepted in a low place.

New traditions have been established in Scotland. For example, before, different patterns on Scottish skirts represented different regions, and later, they represented different clans.

Scottish skirts have gradually become an important part of Scottish cultural identity.
