plaid skirts

Checkered uniform bottoms

Plaid skirts are skirts made from fabric with a crossed horizontal and vertical stripe pattern, typically associated with Scottish tartans.

They appear in school uniforms, particularly at Catholic and private schools, and as fashion items ranging from preppy to punk.

The schoolgirl plaid skirt carries both innocent and sexualized connotations depending on context: She paired the plaid skirt with knee socks for the costume.
