I have always thought of this (sub-)forum as one for talking about kilts in a style such as the Utilikilt, Alt.Kilt, Alpha Kilt, X-Kilt, etc. and other such modern interpretations of kilts and kilt wear such as non-traditional jackets, or sporrans, sporran alternatives, boots, etc. which may look less out of place in contemporary fashion. Casual kilt wear can be similar to this idea where you might wear a t-shirt, boots, and hose pushed down, but obviously it only concentrates on CASUAL wearing of the (modern OR traditional style) kilt. Whereas modern kilt wear can still be dressy, but not traditional.
I was recently at a friend's wedding and was invited to wear a kilt (a Utilikilt) if I wished. Whether I wore pants or a kilt, the rest of the outfit would have remained largely the same and still would have conformed to the business casual dress code; that is, the kilt would have been worn as a pants-replacement in a completely modern-attire outfit.
I would say the reason that a lot of the pictures and topics some of you would like to see here actually end up in General Kilt Talk is because that is where people talk about how they generally wear the kilt... which would of course be how they wear it everyday (i.e. modernly/casually). So that really just leaves the strictly non-traditional style Utilikilts, Freedom Kilts, Alpha Kilts, etc., and the very "modern" accessories, to be discussed in Modern Kilt Wear.
