Apron opening to the left? Can it be reversed?

[madmacs]

This can be, and is, done quite often. The usual reason for a kilt having the apron open on the left is because it was made for a women. There is a school of thought that if it is made for a woman it should be fastened opposite of something made for a man.

I believe that this is actually because Ladies had a maid to help them dress, and doing someone elses buttons up is a pita if theyre not the wrong way...

And I could sooooooooo pull off that mcquarrie story...
