Reading posts here I get the impression that wearing a kilt is a free form of dress and that there is no fixed way it should be worn beyond at the natural waist and the hem at the top of knees. Having seen people wearing desert boots with scrunched down socks and a variety of tops I wonder exactly what is “correct” and what is just a way to wear what is just a garment.
I know that some like to dress up in a particular way with quasi-historical outfits and others with overtly casual styles but wonder if any are really “ correct” and the only ones allowed. One member seems to have the monopoly on what is acceptable although, unless one wishes to be an authentic Scottish Highlander, perhaps this is no more than an opinion to be accepted or ignored as one wishes.
The most sensible advice I seem to have seen is that from Steve Ashton who just likes to wear a kilt, with no specific clan affiliation and has no use for fancy dress such as doublets,jabots and the like.
