Do you really think that people notice flashes, or pay more attention to anything, including sporran, compared with the way they look at the sk... , I mean, kilt?

My advice would be, if you feel unsure, wear a tartan kilt, that will be recognizable to most people in western Europe.

I'll go along with that.
What does it really matter what perfect strangers think?
Friends are different; one likes to have their approval, but, if they are real frinds, they'll listen to your point of view and probably come to accept it. The only thing is, don't make them uncomofortable by obliging them to go around in public with your kilt.
