Hi Donald and Ginger,
First of all Ginger, welcome from me to our Forum. Looking over your posts, I think Donald and Kyle have done an amazing job in tracing your ancestors, and you must be thrilled.
Donald has put my name forward as someone who might know what the Highland dress is for women. My own preference is to wear a tartan skirt, not a kilt - except perhaps a long kilt or perhaps long skirt for evening wear. The tartan that I wear is Muted Livingstone, the others in the same sett are Modern Livingstone and Ancient Livingstone (the tartan favoured by our Chief - see photos of the Gathering). You can see pictures of these tartans on this website.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Jill
