    well... If your mate's neck is on the line and the meeting is about her getting un-wronged; and it's the wrongers you're meeting with. I'd wear smart (but casual - in view of the weather) trouseriness and not let MY appearance distract. I think if you put a Kilt on it will become the centre of attention and perhaps reduce your chances of a successful outcome in the face of their prejudice. If they are wronging this lady without a care they'll certainly hold some contempt about a man in a "skirt" (as they would no doubt interpret it). Tread careful AK, for your friend's sake.

    AKScott ,

    You may want to re-examine your thoughts . English Bloke has it right .

    If you really want to help this person , don't go in with an " in your face " approach . Kilted will have little efect on a situation like this , in fact , it may come across as drama which will add to the negative side , not because of the kilt but because you are using the kilt to add drama to the situation .

    I can very much apperciate your desire to help a fellow employee / subordinate , but your best bet is to present real information and facts to help this person , not showmanship .
