Aboyne vests are typically worn by female Highland dancers as part of their traditional dress. They are a component of the Aboyne outfit, which consists of a tartan skirt, blouse, vest, and sometimes a velvet bodice. The vest is usually made from a matching or coordinating tartan fabric and is worn over the blouse. Aboyne vests can be tailored to fit the individual dancer’s measurements for a personalized fit.
The SOBHD is the official governing body for Highland dancing worldwide and sets the rules and standards for competitions and examinations. They provide guidelines for the traditional Highland dance costumes, including the Aboyne outfit. However, they do not typically manufacture or sell these costumes themselves.
If you are interested in obtaining a made-to-measure Aboyne vest, I would recommend reaching out to a local Highland dance costume maker or a specialized Highland dance retailer. They may be able to assist you in finding or creating a custom-made Aboyne vest according to your specifications and measurements.
Our vests are hand-tailored to RSOBHD specifications from the finest 100% cotton velvet. They are trimmed in either silver or gold 1/2″ metallic braid with ten corresponding medium buttons down the front. The vests are fully lined, interfaced with high-quality haircloth and boned down the front to give a crisp, tailored look. With a wide range of colors to match the tartans, they are finished with a zipper closure.
