MacMillan Dress tartan

Dress tartan of Clan MacMillan.

A two-colour maroon and yellow dress sett recorded by the Register with a date of 1880.

Thread count

M/4 Y16 M4 Y16 M6 Y4 M24 Y4 M/6

Each letter is a colour and each number a count of threads. The slashes mark the pivots: the pattern runs to the end, then reverses back on itself.

Colours

  • M — Marroon
  • Y — Yellow

Shades follow the Register's palette for this entry. Woven cloth varies by mill and by colourway.

Get the kilt

When you order a kilt, ask for the tartan by its full name — for example “MacMillan Dress” — and say which colourway you want. “Modern” is dark and strong, “ancient” is lighter, “weathered” is muted. The sett is the same in each.

We are choosing retailers we trust and will list them here soon.

Wear the colours

Our own MacMillan range is on its way: the name, the tartan and the motto on a heavyweight tee, a hoodie and a mug. About the shop.
