A man born to wear the kilt

[UmAnOnion]

If there's one thing I'd like to see, it would be men and women dressing formally for things like concerts, dances, etc. Around here dressing for an occassion seems to be a lost art. How sad.:-|

i agree with you here 100% KM.
major theatre junkie here & try to go to a Broadway show at least once a month (if the budget will allow - and now that i am spending more & more on kilts & fabric it may be a very dry season - show wise - but i will look great when i go!!!)

ANYWAY, as much as i like to see theatre attendance being enjoyed by one & all, it still lessens the event aspect of it for me at least to see people in beat up jeans & sweeats & the like heading in to see a show. Is it too much to put on something CLEAN at least.

Ditto for those who go to funerals & the like in clothes that look like they slept in them !!! :-x

Okay - i am stepping off my soapbox now - the updraft was getting embarassing!

It is indeed a nice compliment. I have never been told that I ws born to wear the kilt, maybe in a more modern american way such as "..you can definetely pull the whole kilt thing off" !

yes, I heard that from a lass last year, I joked that I was not going to pull it off!

Hummm.... to talk about dressing for occasions and dressing policies is to walk on thin ice. Mind that someone can think unacceptable to see a man in kilt at those occasions.

It is written "the woman makes the Kilt"
But the "Kilt makes the Man"

I've been told several times by women that the kilt works for me because I have the legs for it, and I've had men say that they'd consider wearing a kilt but they didn't have the knees for it like I do.

I'm still trying to figure that out because I think that I have knobby knees, and if it weren't for the physical therapy I'd have one leg bigger than the other because my bad leg normally gets less use. Okay, I'll admit it, my bad leg when measured around the calf is about an inch smaller than my good leg, but no one seems to notice it.

Funny, how a kilt can make people think such good things about my ugly pair of legs.

Obviously the women are not seeing your legs as ugly. It may seem that way to you due to your handicapp. I know what it's like to be disabled, and I think that sometimes we start thinking of our appearance as "ugly."

Kilt on my friend. And take those positve compliments seriously. You obviously look much better than you may think you do.

I have found it interesting that quite often, when my wife and I are leaving the house together, and I am wearing a kilt, she will say that she needs to "dress up" too. Now this is coming from, what I consider, to be a very stylish woman from France.

I take this as a great compliment for the "kilt".
