    The Russians have always been big fans of Robert Burns, so they should have no problem with a Scottish kilt.

    A good friend of mine has portrayed Burns in Moscow for the past several years:

    He has always received a warm reception in Russia. I know he wears his kilt and full formal rig for part of the evening at the St. Andrew's Society of Russia's Burns Supper.

    Yours aye,
