And I will contend that until more of us wear our kilts more often, it's going to continue to be viewed as a costume or a "get-up."

I wear kilts religiously on weekends now, from about 5:01 p.m. Friday til I go to bed Sunday, and maybe a couple of evenings during the week. Not that I'm putting a huge dent in public perception, but I know the folks around me don't seem to blink when they see me in a kilt. It's just something I wear, no more or less than jeans or khakis.
