Ladies- do you wear "male" kilts or kilts made specially for women?

[plaid preacher]

I think perhaps the other thing to add is that while to kilt is traditionally a male garment, it is also mostly a bespoke garment. Therefore, most 8-yard 16oz kilts are made not just for "a man" but each is made for "a specific man". Likewise, a handmade kilt made for you will be uniquely "your" garment; probably with a higher rise to reflect the higher natural waist of a woman, and a more generous apron curve. I have a length of fabric at home that I am intending to sew up for my youngest daughter into a box-pleated kilt ... all I have to do is get the 8 yards of fabric that is my next kilt off the table first!

Around these parts the right vs left closure doesn't seem to receive much support. On this forum a kilt is a kilt is a kilt.

I think if anything, for the ladies here, they are freed from some of the rigid strictures and debate around THCD; and can make and wear a kilt that they like and like to wear.


My thoughts anyway.
