So, I wanted to see how often you see those younger kilt wearers from know how kilt wearing families approach their attire, and it seems to me that they keep on the conservative side, without personal flair I'd say. I personally like to think outside the box to some extent with my kilted attire, and personal flair helps us not look like kilted power rangers, same outfits in different colors

Actually personal flair is very traditional in the Highlands, not particularly apparent with day attire to those outwith the Highlands, its there though, but very noticeable as the formality for evening attire creeps up towards the higher end of the scale. Particularly in the Western Highlands.
Interestingly, it appears that over dressing for any given event is a very North American thing.
