Royal Stewart Tartan
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Royal Stewart Tartan is the tartan of the royal House of Stewart, and is also the personal tartan of Queen Elizabeth II. It is said to be appropriate for all subjects of Elizabeth II to wear the Royal Stewart tartan, much in the same way that clansmen may wear the tartan of their clan chief. Officially, the tartan is worn by numerous military groups, and a select few civilian groups.
In the late 1970's the Royal Stewart tartan became popular in punk fashion, possibly because of the influence of Rod Stewart and the Bay City Rollers.
