The Scottish Gaelic word for dress is “èideadh”, which refers broadly to clothing or attire. For a specific type of dress, such as a gown, the word “gùn” is used.
The term “Highland dress” in Scottish Gaelic is “èideadh Gàidhealach” (pronounced ay-juh GAH-yuh-luch). This refers to the traditional attire worn in the Scottish Highlands, including the kilt and its accompanying garments. It is a key symbol of Scottish heritage and identity, especially during formal events, Highland games, and cultural celebrations.
