Is it possible to wear a kilt and not look like you're from Scotland?

Why not? Do you think all Scots are pink?

I was the guy in the Warrior Tartan (purple) kilt, and I think it's great seeing other cultures wear the kilt, and wear it well, such as the pic above

Well, you could be Scots - without hearing the accent, there's no way of knowing. If a black, Sikh, Moslem etc. kilted man is Scots, the "other cultures" bit doesn't really apply - the kilt is his National Dress.

There are no rules for wearing the kilt. There are no rules for which country you can wear a kilt in. The famous British " it isn,t done you know" is nothing more than a section of society views on things at a certain time often wrong by the way (and i am reminded strongly of those Brit Empire not done you know rules that are now against the law think discrimination laws , equal oppotunity laws etc). So its boils down to personal opinion which in my humble opinion is as of much value as next person,s. There's alot to be said for not getting uptight it has demonstrated health benifits!
