As a Lovat Fraser, it would seem strange not to own a Hunting Fraser kilt, as opposed to a Red Dress Fraser one which is more associated with the Saltoun branch - see the drapes in the separate Lovat and Saltoun tents at The Gathering last Saturday for confirmation.

My dear ol' mum has a dress Fraser skirt which suits her, but I just think 'shortbread tins' when I see it on a bloke. My wife has a weathered/muted dress Fraser which suits her colouring as an Asian, she says, and I'm inclined to agree!

So, there's history, preference and many other things to consider as we all know.

All I know, is that I'm as proud as punch when I wear my kilt, whether it's on the hills or swishing down The Mile!
