Even in the Hebrides
Here are a couple of photos from a Facebook friend of mine from Uist. These photos are from 28 years ago and were taken in the Highlands. I assume it was a wedding, but I don't know for sure as his facebook comments didn't say.
As you can see, even in the home of the kilt, there are those who wear ecru hose, ghillie brogues and waitbelts and waistcoats at the same time. Whether you appreciate the aesthetic or not, I think this is good evidence that such fashion choices are not the exclusive domain of those "outwith the Scottish Highlands".
