Nice photo guys.
Although I've seen references to Hamish before on this site, this is the first time I've been properly introduced to the concept of him.

Where are you getting all of this? This doesn't seem to be true history. Northumbria only ever stretched as far as the South-East of Scotland. Strathclyde, like Pictland, was...

Yes, true. But most of what is now Scotland was once Gaelic-speaking. English only established itself later with David I, it's called the Davidian Revolution.

Photos please. I'd love to see some photos, both of the white Ghillie Shirt and the red interpretation one.

I meant to say 'isn't'. My bad!

I'd like to state that a belt is completely formal as it is not worn with evening kilt dress. It is only worn in day wear or semi-formal kilt dress but only when without a waistcoat.

It could happen you never know. Who really knows what kilt wear will be like in 100 years time. Plaids will probably be extinct, head wear, basically things that are getting less common currently.

Yes, I understand what you're saying. But I believe this look which I consider to be smart-casual Highland Dress, is a great innovation which doesn't seem to break the conventions of the natural...

Well I see it as wearing a Saxon suit with a t-shirt or a shirt with the top button undone, that's smart-casual when it comes to suits. In Highland Dress, I believe smart-casual would be Ghillie...

Yes, I thought that to be the case. I'm not going to put normal laces in them, as I do not find that appealing. Would I be right in thinking that black ghillie brogues with the ghillie shirt would be...

Yes, considering the tartan has some blue in it, I had an previous idea to that where I wore dark blue hose with Royal Stewart tartan flashes

FossilHunter, I meant a different shade of red. Slightly lighter red. This obviously won't be soon as I don't want to spend anymore money right now regardless of price.

What about wearing it with brown Ghillie Brogues? See, I look at the brown ones and get the impression it's more informal than the black ones. I want to wear Ghillie Brogues with the shirt. I...

Okay, a little update. I've just finished the first draft and have begun the second draft. It is going great so far, I'm padding it out more, developing the characters more, fixing certain things,...

Okay, this is what I'm talking about, Gaelic came to Scotland from Ireland. It then spread to Pictland where as well as replacing the Pictish language, Gaelicized many Pictish names. Same with the...

Thanks for the advice Jamie.
Explain how a simple chain is formal? The shop showed me a decorated chain that had square metal bits on it, which you had to pay money for, so I got the basic metal...

What kind of plaid is that? Just curious.

4th September 18, 12:38 AM
Ah! Not to worry, just put a Balmoral on. Nice wool on your head. I would go out in the Ghillie if it was raining heavily, hailing or it was as cold as the North Pole in summer. To be honest, being...

Yes in South-East Scotland. The South-West, and the North-East were Gaelic-speaking, except the extreme North-East. When Dal Riadia joined with Pictland to become Alba, the Pictish language and...

Tobus,
I've made some changes to the outfit, what do you think?
35025 35026 35027
Better? Worse? Do I look smarter? Do I look more ridiculous?
I put the hose lower and the kilt higher...

Okay, still though. I would say it was simply more 60s fashion than a costume shirt, just fashion, that's all. Not a costume.
-
3rd September 18, 02:08 AM
I wouldn't. For the following reasons;
(1) - I'd like to keep it in good condition for my kilt.
(2) - It's not really in my fashion sense to wear it with other types of clothing.
I suit a...

I'd say "I'm not a pirate! I'm wearing Highland Dress!".

Allan,
I'm not a Gaelic extremist. I don't deny the earlier P-Celtic languages of Scotland and the Germanic Scots language, but I'm saying that Scotland as a kingdom, in its very early days,...
