Despite the name including "Renaissance", you'll see costumes from every period. Even from Greek/Roman times, to the Dark Ages, and all the way up to modern sci-fi getups. It's quite comical and fun. Don't go to a Ren faire expecting historical accuracy.
Anyway, GGGP, as I'm sure you know, there was never any such thing as a kilted wench. So it sounds like you're looking for a fantasy costume, which is fine, but I can't say I've seen any female kilted pirates. Typically a "wench" costume is going to include a long dress with multiple layers of petticoats, a corset, etc.
This is my wife's Ren faire outfit, which is a somewhat typical style for a "wench". She likes to wear boots with it - the tall ones that go all the way up to the knee. I gotta say, it's pretty sexy when she girts up one side of her skirts so that when she walks, you can see the boots, her knee, and part of her thigh. 

This year she'll add a fancy hat to it (though not a pirate style one).
