How do you pin on a competion Plaid?

Question

This will be my first Highland Dancing (And Scottish Country Dancing) competition next week, and I am embarresed to say I don't know how to pin on my Plaid.

I have the Broche and plaid, and vest, (I am female) but could someone take a picture of, or give me instructions as to how pin on the plaid for competition.

Answer 1

I'm pretty sure that you pin the rosette of the plaid onto the front right shoulder of your vest(and put the brooch on top of it in the middle of the rosette), then take it over your shoulder, across your back and pin it where it hits around the small of your back on the left side.

That's how I do it for my formal kilt/dress, but it is probably different for dancers... try a google search, too...
