You know... I've been thinking. (?) Isn't the word "mannequins" a bit sexist? I mean, way back in the 80s we would have been told that they should be called "personnequins" wouldn't we?

I dunno. They're wearing kilts in a pretty masculine way. They're male shapes. I think we're on safe ground calling them Mannequins.

Those cuffs on the green Jacket are identical to those worn by the Atholl Highlanders, you do see them in some of the old paintings.

The cuffs are standard on the Kilkenny Jacket.
