A fly plaid is an added form of a pleated cloth in the same tartan as the kilt, cast over the left shoulder and fastened in front of the shoulder with a plaid brooch. It is commonly worn during the evening, particularly for formal activities and other special events, such as weddings, dining, and other celebrations.

It can be a square piece of fringed tartan cloth anywhere from 36"X 36" up to 50"X 50", with the most common size being 40"X40". It is used as a modern alternative to the more traditional small or "Drummers Plaid" which belts around the waist.

To wear the fly plaid, run the plaid through the left epaulet of the jacket, if it has them, so the corner comes to about the level of the left nipple. The broach should be the type with the standard pin on the back. The thick pin type is for the "full (piper's) plaid". It should be pinned through the jacket just below the left shoulder. The rest hangs down the back. The "drummer's plaid" is longer and tucked under the belt.

A full plaid is a long piece of tartan fabric, traditionally worn as part of a full highland dress uniform. It usually matches the tartan of the kilt. A full plaid is pleated the whole way, with half of its length sewn shut (so that the pleats cannot open). Its length is almost twice the height of the wearer (about twice the distance from the ground to the wearer's shoulder).

A full plaid is typically only seen on members of pipe bands which elect to wear full dress (military styled) uniforms, and occasionally as formal highland dress.

The full plaid is wrapped around the wearer's chest and under right arm, pulled firm to the body. The plaid is twisted on the left shoulder with one loose end falling behind the wearer's back and getting tucked into the waist belt. The leading edge of the other loose end is pulled forward and draped over the wearer's left shoulder.

Properly worn, the edge of the plaid should be level with top of left spat point at the rear of the leg, with fringe hanging down below this level. The lower edge of the plaid should be horizontal and parallel with the ground. The leading edge and front face of the plaid is secured by a brooch (often a cairngorm brooch) on the left shoulder.

To the lay person, it would appear as a sort of long, tartan, shoulder-cape.

Glengarry or Balmoral hats are available in several colours and are considered a special order item from Scotland. Please refer to website when placing an order or refer to a product specialist.

Made famous by Sherlock Holmes, the Inverness Cape is the rain protection garment of choice for pipe bands and other kilt wearers the world over.
