They are alleging now.
Tartans were worn in the past.

This should be B.

A was equally good, but then when we have "to be" there is an element of uncertainty, but tartns weren't no uncertian. So it should be alleged to have been.

it requires a present perfect tense in passive form.
So B is the one.
