I've always loved plaid too.  Mad about plaid.  Plaid pants on me would be a hell no.  I prefer my plaid in accessories or maybe a top.

I got the Joan holiday plaid skirt and I am a bit disappointed.  Never is anything as pretty as it appears with great camera work but this skirt is still worthy of kudos.  However, the disappointment is based on the length.  I ordered a petit and much to my chagrin, they are all the same length and this one will need to lose about 6-7 inches in order for it to be wearable.  I will have spent a lot of bread on it by then to  make it wearable.  I should have opted for something else for candlelight services.

I thought that the Joan Rivers plaid maxi skirt was nice when it was shown in Canada a few weeks ago. I would think that it would look nice paired with a black top or a white top. It's striking enough that it doesn't need to be paired with any other plaid clothes or accessories though.

I prefer to wear plaid only in scarves for the most part. I do have a Gap red and black plaid moto jacket but it requires thought as it really needs a plain colored top underneath it. I did see a lady last year who had the same jacket and it looked nice on her.

I read many peple complained about the skirt length. It's a shame they can't let petites have a garment ,that is truly made for them alone

I am surprized they did that. I will say though ,I think it's a garment worthy of the tailoring costs. It is a timeless classic that will give you many seasons of wear

LOL.  I would love that but with my weight gains and losses due to so many steroids, so much other chemo, I might be two sizes larger or two sizes smaller next season, but do think it a worthy garment and I am happy to have it and even happier to have another holiday season and hopefully a Christmas upcoming with so many events to attend: theater, political parties, musicals, our church parties, parties for charities, the clubs and especially my sweet family events.  It is indeed a blessing!!!

@Nonametodaywear it in good health, and may you have great joy ,at each event you  attend. I'm sure you will get many compliments about  the skirt

The Duchess of Cambridge looks lovely in plaids.

I had a lot of plaid clothing items, but thought it was out of style as no one was wearing it, so I donated all of it but one jacket.  All of my items were from Pendleton and were expensive.  

I am always a day late and a dollar short it seems.

I think the royals wear plaid when they are attending things like the Braemare( sp?) games in Scotland ,and other events tied to Scotland

The late Queen Mother was a Scots, and had a castle in Scotland as do the Queen ,and Prince Phillip

I love watch plaid. It's one of my very favorites

I'm a fan of plaid but only if the plaids match up at the seams.  I bought a Joan Rivers plaid blouse and in the video the model never turned around.  I should have known the reason.  When the blouse arrived it was a horrible mismatch.
