Scottish dress is traditionally composed of a KILT (4 letters) and a PLAID (5 letters). The KILT is a knee-length garment with pleats at the back, typically made of tartan wool. It is worn with a sporran, a pouch that hangs from a belt at the front of the waist. The PLAID is a rectangular piece of tartan cloth, usually worn over the shoulder and fastened at the front. It is often used to keep warm in cold weather. Together, the KILT and PLAID are the traditional attire of Scotland, and are often seen at Highland Games and other cultural events.
