Don't we already have labels for these kilts? Don't we already say, "great," "traditional," and "modern?" When you put a label like "Victorian" on the kilt that some of us consider simply a "kilt," without qualifications, it is somewhat insulting. It brings to mind old parlor rooms, doilies, and antiques. It makes those of us who wear this version of the kilt seem stuck in some ancient past; moreover, "modern" says those who wear that version are new, up-to-date, with the times, and not stuck in the past. In my humble opinion, "Victorian" is a derogatory and demeaning term to be put on the kilt that most people in Scotland wear.
