My point was that dress tartans do not seem to be worn as much as they were 40 years ago as a part of formal highland dress.

They were very much the choice for many in the 1970s and 1980s. These tartan based on women's arisaid/ domestic blanket patterns. More recently they have fallen out of favour in preference for either more traditional, often red based, tartans, or new designs. What is also the case is that there is less of a concern about keeping green based tartans for daywear.
