If I were to visit Scotland...

I am a "local" and I wear my kilt on a regular basis just because I want too. I get the usual compliments and very occasionaly asked to pose for a photo. Other than the occasional sideways look no one bothers.

Enjoy your visit.

It would likely be called a formal or tuxedo shirt.

We also call it a dress shirt and will confuse the two constantly. Have you seen the way we dress?

"Have you seen the way we dress?"

LOL!

I have a hard enough time not seeing you guys, when not kilted up, running around in your underwear (vest and pants)!

The USA/Canada & the UK, two/three countries separated by an uncommon language (fags=cigarettes; pavement=sidewalk; bonnet=hood; bumper=fender; windscreen=windshield; boot=trunk; lollipop=popsicle etc, etc)!
