ScotlandShop Style Guide: Burns Night Outfits for Women

When it comes to Burns Night events, there is no set-in stone dress code for women, though a little bit of plaid is always recommended. Formal highland wear for women is considerably simpler than for men. A kilted skirt, paired with a blouse or cashmere jumper and coordinating wool plaid sash (pictured below in Burns Check plaid) is a very traditional highland wear outfit option for the lassies - perfect for a ceilidh or formal supper. 


A stylish alternative is our plaid shift dress (pictured below in Black Watch plaid) with matching or contrasting velvet and plaid shawl, creating a sophisticated Scottish outfit with a modern twist. Choose from your own family plaid, a generic plaid, or coordinate with your partner. 


Our plaid accessories can really elevate an outfit, all while making a subtle nod to your Scottish heritage. From classy handbags to cosy serapes and elegant plaid brooches, or step out in style with a pair of plaid shoes, either way, you're guaranteed a compliment or two.
