Are Earasaids a Fashion Statement? Can you wear an Earasaid modernly?

Описание: Would YOU wear an earasaid outside of a renaissance fair or history event?

The earasaid is starting to enjoy a revival in street fashion; just as the Great Kilt is. Rocky and Erik go over the trend as USA Kilts is seeing it unfold.

From our website:

What is an earasaid?
A traditional draped garment found in women's’ highland dress. Typically consisting of two to four yards of tartan material wrapped around the waist and/or shoulders, with some left loose for covering the head. The Earasaid was typically pleated around the waist and held in place with a belt, just like a man's great kilt. Often it was also pinned by a brooch at the chest.

This utilitarian yet elegant garment came into being in the late 1500's and stayed relatively mainstream until the late 1740's. It emerged from the leine and brat (cloak) that was worn by highland women from the 1300's to 1500's. It was during the early 1500's that the feile mhor (great kilt) or feile breacan (belted plaid) began to emerge and gain popularity among Scottish men. This led to Scottish Highland women designing their own style of belted plaid ... the Earasaid.

Now the earasaid is enjoying a revival in street fashion. Rocky and Erik go over the trend as USA Kilts is seeing it unfold.
