Wow, that sounds totally contradictory to me. HR is saying that wearing a kilt meets the dress code, but then they go on to say it's up to your manager. What's the point of having a dress code then? I think you have two options.

1. Where your kilt; if your manager has a problem with it you can tell her that you spoke to HR are they said it met the dress code. However, if she then takes up the situation with HR the fact that they told you it's up to your manager might come up.

2. Try to convince your manager. Tell her you spoke with HR and that they said a kilt meets the dress code.

I might also make some points saying that you only wish to wear the kilt for a specific day or a few specific days throughout the year, but since a kilt meets the dress code you just might decide to wear it everyday. Comprimise.
