Here that's a clear distinction. 'Fancy dress' is everyone in a group dressing up in cheap caveman costumes and doing a pub crawl, or a costume party, etc. It doesn't mean black or white tie. That's why it's especially offensive, it's quite explicitly calling the kilt nothing more than a cheap costume worn for laughs.
