Renaissance Faire wear - what's the consensus?
OK, with the never-ending thread about Scottish Festival peeves, it seems the general feeling is that certain outlandish outfits are (rightly) out of bounds.
But what about a Renaissance Faire? These tend to have a carnival type atmosphere, and it's perfectly acceptable for people to show up in normal street clothes, period-correct garments, sci-fi outfits (?!), S&M costumes, etc.
As a serious kilt-wearing person, I have no intention of wearing anything outlandish. But what does the community here find as acceptable for a Ren faire, even if it falls outside the norms of traditional garb for Scottish events?
For example, even though 'ghillie shirts' are not really accepted as traditional Scottish attire, is it more acceptable at a Ren faire, even if it's not accompanied by other period accessories?
What would YOU wear to a Ren faire if you wanted to wear a kilt and have fun, but not necessarily dress in a well-researched and historically-correct outfit? Especially if it's on a Scottish-themed weekend at the faire?
