Well you are not wrong Ted, I, for one, like to see the kilt worn in the traditional way. I understand a certain amount of "convention bending" by those that know what's what and I happily put that down to personal flair.
I respect that it is all down to personal choice, but what baffles me, are those that ask how wear this that and the other PROPERLY,they are given an honest reply by many and then they completely ignore the advice and then post a "look at me" picture here and then they wonder(I assume) why they get no replies from the "traditionalists! In the nicest possible way The end result is a joke! That's why there are dress conventions! To guide the unwary and to complement the host,if there is one, and not to make yourself look like a lemon.
As to Jamie's hat, well-----------------------.
