So You Want to Wear a Kilt…
Here’s my personal confession, o devoted readers of The Costumer–I absolutely adore kilts and men who wear them. There’s a certain way that perfectly pleated fabric bounces lithely upon the bottom of a handsome fellow of Scottish descent which cannot be likened to any other sight in history. Even a fake-out wraparound kilt holds a bit of mystery and freedom, attracting women for miles.
Should you decide to wear a kilt to a non-formal event such as a faire , get ready to get kilt checked. What’s a kilt check? That’s when a lady checks to see if you are wearing anything beneath your tartan. Typically, a PG-13 kilt check involves the slide of a lady’s hand up the outer side of a manly kilt wearer’s leg and upper thigh, but not all women are so PG-13.
Start out with the simple wrap around kilt, purchasable online. Patterns are also purchasable. If you like the comfort and the breeze, consider upgrading to a formal version. Best of luck–and may you be kilt checked often!
Yes, kilts are great! Men that wear them certainly have a more attractive glow about them. I’ve been trying to get my partner to wear one (he’s half scottish anyway), but he says they’re too expensive. But there are some cheap kilts around for between 40-60 pounds, which is really good! He can’t give me that excuse anymore lol.
