kilted Halloween Costume
Yes, I know that the kilt is not "a costume", but I'm STILL gonna greet our local trick-or-treaters in blue Jacobite bonnet, faux Great Kilt and shirt, toting my targe and brandishing my claymore.

I'm of the agreement that a kilt is NOT a costume. But, I dunno, I think the Great Kilt falls more in that category... especially when paired with the Claymore.

Alan,
I think I must be reading Matt Newsome's blog to much.
I have no desire to wear a kilt for Halloween. I like kilts, they are who I am rather than who I'd like to be.

I don't know, kilts are not costumes, but costumes CAN include kilts. And anything done to promote the popularity of kilts is a good thing.

my 2 cents
This Saturday evening we are going to a party & I am going in full regalia. Yes I know it is clothing and not a costume. But as KiltedCodeWarrior aluded to, if it promotes the kilt it is a positive thing. Besides I did not buy this stuff to reserve for ren-fairs.

This is exactly why I sported my garb last night (York County, Maine law has trick or treating happen the night BEFORE Halloween... no idea why) while I walked the wee-uns around the 'hood. Unfortunately, I didn't take any photos last night, but the kilt and the boots I wore last night can be seen below. The sporran in the photo was my own creation (which I ended up selling for $50 [the rough equivelant of £26 or €39 for our European friends]).
Anyway, here's the photo:

Several years ago , we had a costume contest at work. There were three prizes. Lucky, because only three of us showed up in costume. My department had two entrants. I threw on a tyvek suit, put on my respirator, goggles and a hardhat and became......The Toxic Avenger! I was introduced as "gas man". Guess it's time to pull out another tyvek suit and scare the doodoo out of the two kids in the neighborhood. Boo! Happy Halloween!
