    My memories are similar to above. The kilts were the same, the difference would be the sporran. The belt would be a factor too, but that's probably a fit issue. Remember that in Scotland, UK, school uniforms would include a belt so it would be worn to identify the school in public.

    Geoffrey kilts brochure states they are the same, except women's are made lighter fashion, comfort and "shape".

    Just a quick note- the kilts wouldn't really have to be a different shape for elementary girls and boys- the girls don't get hips and waist really until puberty.

    Maybe I'll ring up a friend and ask if I try hers out to see how different they feel......Or not. But in all seriousness, i think that "a mans kilt" also has much deeper pleats than a "schoolgirls kilt" (at least those of modern-day)
