The comments on the article are none too kind. "Crap" seems to be the common denominator.

Hmm, that tweed suit at bottom center looks MacPhersonish to me. . .

It seems like most of these outfits are intended to make a mockery of tartan and Scottish attire. Maybe that wasn't his intent, but that's how it comes across. I don't know how these fashion designers would expect people to take it seriously.
That said, I think the fellow in the center, wearing the tartan suit and bow tie, looks pretty darn sharp.

The front full page pic was MUCH more traditional. I don't seem to have the hang of posting pics here yet but maybe ctbuchannon can post that one for us here!

But the guy in the “kilt” most definitely was not.

I've been pondering the fellow just to the right of center. What he's wearing is indeed a kilt, so I can't really fault him there, even though he's wearing it way shorter than we're accustomed to seeing. And at least he's wearing hose. The jacket and turtleneck, though, make it seem really weird. Not to mention the gloves and boots. The cut/style of the jacket with the belt around it, coupled with the blonde hair in a buzz cut and the leather boots/gloves, makes it look eerily military, and not in a good way. Almost like a modern take on a Nazi uniform. I apologize for invoking that visual here, but that's what it reminds me of.
The dude to the left of center... what the heck is that on his face? Something in his mouth, or through his nose?

Actually I was focused more on the guy with the odd nose jewellery.

It is great to see the fashion industry taking note of the beauty of tartan clothing. Thanks for posting these pictures.

I wish the Editor of the Wall Street Journal understood Scottish is an adjective, and the noun for someone from Scotland is Scot singular or Scots plural.

Most people mock what they do not understand. So instead of keeping quiet, they think that they have to put their juvenile opinions out there for all to see. The Internet has awakened something in some people where they will say online what would never come out of their mouth in person. Sad really as I love the "Scottish" look and always have.
