It did in the call centre I worked in Cardiff. You wore what you wanted to on casual day and you paid £1 for charity. Furthermore there was no dress code at weekends or Bank Holidays either.

That's a bit different than the standard casual Fridays in the US.

maybe she has a problem with what she thinks the kilt entails...."no underpants"

If I were you, I'd wear the kilt, but take a pair of pants just in case.

If you wear nice shoes, hose up, a colored button up shirt and tie you'd be ok. I'd even wear boxers just to be safe.
If she complains too much, you could just slip into a pair of Dockers or whatnot.

St. Patrick didn't wear green (so they say in Dublin), the true colour of Ireland is a dark Royal Blue - kilt and tie thyself appropriately.

CT - and get a harp kilt pin.

Hmm "up to the manager" is always a subjective lottery. I would wear a kilt if the company thinks a kilt qualifies for business casual and damn her eyes.

(I always could be a stroppy rebel)
