What’s comforting and comfortable plus stain-hiding? You guessed it… a plaid flannel! (Photo above via Vogue)

The history of PLAID began with the Scottish Blackwatch traditional plaid, then resurged in the 70’s on shirts and suits to chairs and sofas. The 1990’s counterculture music scene with Nirvana and Pearl Jam made plaid cool with GRUNGE plaids. Sexy Lumberjack buffalo plaids had a moment too. Couture designers like Marc Jacobs and Dries Van Noten made plaids elegant, chic and sophisticated.

ROSEKNOWS STYLIST TIP

Checks & Plaids can be ‘off the grid’ or classic & traditional. Try mixing plaid with fur, sequins and silk for a more modern take on the trend. Are you a fan of punk? Look for asymmetrical cuts on dresses or interesting overlapped pant waistbands. If you lean more preppy, stick with traditional plaids and invest in a Burberry cashmere scarf that you will wear forever! An elegant plaid look may include a polished pleated skirt like this one here. The majority of us love the casual and comfy plaid category. For casual plaids, check out Rails here.
