Wearing A Kilt On Halloween

[Nomad]

Dressing as a Scotsman for Halloween is in poor taste in my opinion.

However, what about...

...a Scottish Pirate



...Macbeth





...a Scottish Santa




...or a Scottish Explorer




You can incorporate the kilt in a variety of ways that has it be part of a costume, but you should never make the kilt a costume.

You are a very bad man ( well naughty really ). I like the fact that you can still have fun with the kilt, whilst you have demonstrated wearing it very well in traditionally/historically/casually formats on numerous occasions in the past.

I might not like all of the looks, but who cares that's just my own hang ups and some of the looks have made me reappraise and alter what I wear because they do look good and isn't that what this forum should be about.

I don't get upset about people using the kilt as part of a costume as long as people recognise that what they are wearing is a costume and not anything historical, have fun and enjoy yourself. As to wearing it with things not regarded as traditional, please keep doing it I have grown to appreciate the mix of modern/traditional mixes some have displayed.

P.S whilst I think some people can end up looking like muppets, self included, my 22 in the British army has left me with a warped sense of humour and instead of getting upset I just laugh to myself ( get strange looks from the wife if it is out loud) and move on.
