As long as you don't mistake the "renaissance faire" for a "period correct renaissance era re-enactment" you may 'get away' with a tailored kilt and lots of other 'anachronistic' things as part of your costume.
Same applies to the Black Watch/Campbell/Grant Hunting/gov't sett tartan, it may not have been around in that time period, but you certainly see it often enough at faires. Have fun!
