I have to say that I think Dixiecat makes a good point. Personally, I have no interest in wearing a man's kilt, but from a fashion standpoint, what she wrote makes perfect sense.
Just about anything goes these days if you pull it off with a little class. I've seen women wear neckties, three piece suits, and fedora's and look very feminine and sexy, and all of these are traditionally men's garments. Here, I'll even find a picture:

And don't they look feminine and adorable? Fashion is an evolving thing, if we stuck strictly to what was traditional, women would still be in corsets and hoop skirts and men would be the ones wearing the tights and high-heels. And really, who is to say what is traditional? We'd have to appoint someone to pick a moment in history to stick with and then employ millions to enforce the idea ;)
By the way, I realize how contradictory this all must sound after my last thread.... and I really have no excuse, except to say that I have gotten over the tie and fedora thing (and have worn them both), maybe I just need more time to get over the kilt thing since it's so new to me.
