Kilt in Deathly Hallows part 2

Here's a bigger version of the same pic.

I'm no expert, by a long shot, but I don't think this one has a name. I don't recall seeing very many non-symmetrical tartans, though as I've mentioned, I barely know enough to even have an opinion.

It's still pretty sweet looking, though.

he was in the 5th movie when they go into the Boar's Head for their first Dumbledor's Army meeting... I saw him walk accross the room to chase a pig or something and saw his kilt, and pointed it out to my parents "look! he's wearing a kilt!" lol

Right. It's not a tartan kilt, it's a tweed kilt. In this case the warp and weft overstripes don't match.

And then there's Professer Moody at the Ule Ball in his kilt, though he's just sitting there

Is it one of the Welsh tartans, woven in tweed? Or just a tweed pattern made into a kilt? Where are Matt and Peter when you need them?

Does Moody wear the kilt long because he has a wooden leg?

I guess so

Moody's long kilt.
it looks as though just the front apron is extended to cover his knees, at least in that pic anyway

and as i have never read the books i can only guess at this (correct me if wrong) but Moody always seemed to me, to be one BAFM, and the movies seemed to down play how powerful he was,or just not show it. again if wrong please correct me.
