my favourite topic. Dress codes.

[kilted scholar]

I grew up in London and visit it now regularly. I have no hesitation in wearing the kilt there. If I have no function to attend I wear a sweater not a jacket (personally I avoid jackets unless there is a compelling reason for one).

London is one of the most cosmopolitan cities in the world. In central London almost every language spoken by humans is heard on the streets. It is a microcosm of the world. In London Muslims wear their distinctive clothing, Sikhs their turbans, and others whatever they wish; it amazes me that anyone would even think it out of order for a kilt to be worn.

So wear it in an understated way.
