Nice story! I have gotten a similar experience from my introduction to kilts, though not as far along as you, but my life has definitely started to take a direction - all because of kilts! Funny how a little Freedom where once there was none (from something as simple as a piece of clothing!) can open up a whole new world.
And I agree with jrmiller - the kilt may not just "get in the way" when representing these groups, but might be something that grabs someone's attention and help them remember you (and pay more attention to what you have to say). Unless there are uniform/dress requirements being put on you, otherwise I think it might be worth a shot.
