I hope everyone notes that Alan has asked for pics of themselves doing it all wrong, and not for pictures of other people doing it wrong. There was an infamous thread about "Kilt Don'ts" before I joined the forum that supposedly spiralled quickly into meanness and venom. I think that might actually be against a rule somewhere now, but perhaps a Mod can correct me if I'm wrong.

Did you just refer to yourself as a gentleman? And in another thread you used the words "casual daywear" to describe your own outfit? What is going on here?

I certainly hope you will rise to your own challenge. Somewhere, tucked in the back of a box, I might have some pics from one of the first times I wore the kilt... I'll see if I can find and scan it...

Sorry, my bad. No "meanness or venom" intended and I've deleted my original post. Like many in the digital age however, I tend to hit the "delete" button on pics of me that I'd rather not have come back and haunt me!

It might be the case that none of us have pictures of "wrongness" because we all follow the "rules" to the letter. Let's make this a chance to break free of the "rules" and deliberately, intentionally and on purpose wear the kilt "wrong".
I'll post pictures in a day or two.

Well, here I am at home, doing it all wrong.

The traditionalists will be aghast that I'm wearing a tee shirt and flipflops, with no sporran, and that my kilt is made from low yardage poly-acrylic, with an elastic waistband. At least it's my clan tartan

The modernists will be equally scandalized that I'm wearing a Sportkilt, but the closest I come in this picture to any sort of activity is typing a post on Xmarks

Somebody has a home sound studio. I see that little mixing board.

Ok, It took a while...

Please be gentle...

(the subject photographed in the thread (me) knows it's all wrong and did it for you guys and gals...)

First up... Wrong! On how many levels?

Do the Hamish....

Now for.... Wrong! On how many levels?

Pleat shot

And then you get invited.... Wrong! On how many levels?

And then people ask why you wear a kilt..... because you'll look like this if you didn't..... (Mods, it's a funny pic and not Xrated, but if you want it out I'll understand)

I'll spare you the pleats shot...

It was harder than I thought taking these pics, when people put it wrong, a kilt is really uncomfortable.....

And remember, be gentle with me and please don't share on facebook
