Kilt length

[Roderick Powell]

Thank you gentlemen.
When I started wearing kilts 5 years ago, I did not cinch both top straps tight enough, so by the end of day, the "slide" had kicked in, and it was below my knees, and I needed an arm extender to open my sporran.

....Must have sometning to do with my increasing waist line as I get older.

As far as the white hose, I have several different pair/ colors now from the House of Cheviot.

As I have said in other posts, I learn something every time I log in.

I LIVE IN UK Cornwall. I have been with Scottish Ex Pats in South Dorset, say twenty miles west of Anne the Pleater for thirty five years.
We always wore what is correctly called Ivory Hose. I still wear them as they work well.
Perhaps this is Uniformity to a tradition. All the Kilties legs are covered in the same colour Kilt Hose. All the Kilts are different colours.
All the shirts are white and worn with Ties. No tartan ties are worn. This is the form for dancing.
It is a sort of phycological thing. Do not be the odd man out.
I never see a Kiltie out on the street. Anyone who has seen me may copy my style. I may then change my style, and they would
then become Confused. I feel this subject should stay in this thread until it becomes a different debate.
We are offering a Crit ( an art college term ) in what we see in photos in the thread.
What one has to watch is how the impact of the Kilt wearing changes when the Colour of the Kilt hose is changed.
I believe a thread was posted....Ten different was to wear a Kilt.
A question was asked and I stuck in my five pence worth of info. ....................Roderick............15.10.15
