    Cool vid. Was that part of the "Dressed to kilt" I have heard about?

    I think that the models would have looked better in real kilts...

    I agree! How could those, er, well, be polite here Jock, things ever be described as kilts?

    I have no idea what that video was, but I liked the music. It reminds me of... here.
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…

    Most of these contemporary kilts won't make it past the catwalk, whereas traditional Scottish kilts will still be around in another three hundred years.

    Kind Regards,

    David.

    Rather spoiled by using a Western movie theme for the music! Could they not have found some bagpipe or Celtic music to accompany the video?

    Like most male models, they could be wearing sackcloth and ashes and comments would be the same.

    The one with the floppy pocket things reminds one of Rowlf the Dog. http://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/Rowlf_the_Dog
