Kilt Do's and Don'ts

[Panache]

What i think is funny is that everyone evaluates "do's and dont's" in this thread. We post pictures, and usually have a pretty good laugh at some things.

I'm just waiting for someone to post a picture of someone in a kilt, and then the picture happens to be of someone on this list.

Just a thought that we might not want to "tear apart" every single picture we see TOOO bad, because we might eventually really offend someone. Remember that we all were inexperienced at this at some point too, but I'm sure most of us can laugh at the sillyness that we once portrayed. I will offer up a really silly picture of me years ago, to show how uneducated i was at one point in my kilt wearing life....

I still don't claim to be completely authentic, but I look much better than this nowdays...

Well said Ayin!

Furthermore bully for you for showing that a lot of us don't quite get it right the first time. One wonders how many of the fellows we have regarded and noted the faults in their outfits have since moved on to one's we would admire. My first kilted outfit wasn't so different than many of these gents, but because of X Marks the Scot I have learned and improved:

You brought up the old posts before I could Dan Porter. I have actually posted a picture of myself in the Kilt Don't thread.

Like I had said before, most of us don't get it right the first time. That being said though. Here are some pictures of don't from the recent Tucson Highland Games on November 1st.

First. DON'T let your kilt hang all the way to the back of your shins. this isn't just a drape that's hanging low. The pleats were this low as well





secondly, "IF" (BIG IF) you're going to wear something underneath your kilt like shorts, please don't let the shorts be longer than the kilt.




3rd. Ok this one isn't a kilt don't BUT it is a DON'T DO THIS EVER, ESPECIALLY at a highland games. I have no freaking clue what this lady thinks she was dressing up as. I have so many negative bad words to say about this, but I'll refrain since this is a family forum.





Enjoy!

I think this is kind of humorous myself, but he needs to hike it up a bit.

I actually enjoy the StormTrooper Kilted pics that are out there. They make me giggle. I don't treat them as do's or dont's personally.

I disagree. I see it as a deffinate DO.

As a proud member of the Imperial Highlanders (IH-5965) Kilted Trooper Brigade, I definitely have to agree.

But then, I dress up as a Stormtrooper. What do I know?
