Classic kilt style - as seen at large this summer in Scotland

[Jock Scot]

I think its a question of degree and personal choice. But...... but, I really do think that care needs to be taken with what and when certain items of kilt attire are worn. I know that one member of this website will not be pleased with what I am going to say, but the dangers of "over-egging the cake" with our attire choices does encourage the rather outrageous kilt attire choices that we see on this website all to often. To be fair, they are not seen as often, on the website, as they used to be. But, toning down the more flamboyant kilt attire, as shown in the first post in this thread is best left in the past, in my humble opinion.

So, to my mind, care needs to be taken with our attire choices. Its not a question of right or wrong with most of our choices, but it is a question of making our attire choices so that we wear those kilt attire choices "to best effect" to fit our chosen event, with relevance to today.

Harking back to the more romantic kilt attire choices is all very well, but we have moved on . Trying to revive those dated attire choices is a personal choice for us all for sure, but for me, those frivolous days are gone and best left in the past.

That does not mean, by any means, that we cannot dress in our kilt attire smartly and appropriately, but, we can do it without leading us into frivolous and unnecessary territory.
