    Alternatively , if the photo had been taken from the front it may also have worked .
    As it stands , all the photograph depicts , is four models in tartan skirts , with checkered blouses and short socks.

    And Archangel , in answer the insult that you deleted ,
    I did not arrive here by mistake .
    Your mistake will be to insult again .


    No offense, but if you look closely you can see the model on the far right is turned slightly towards us and you can see he has a flat, unpleated apron. And there is no seam to indicate that it closes on that side(Men's kilts close on the other side.) Therefore it would appear to be a men's kilt.

    Now let's not turn this fun, amusing, long-lived post into a fight that gets the thread closed.

    There is no need for anyone to insult anyone else or for anyone to start complaining that a company are showing a bunch of men in dresses.

    I have seen many a pleated skirt that has a flat panel in the front .
    My contention is that the Hilfiger advert depicts 4 men in tartan skirts .


    And I agree with you , no need for a member to insult another member.
    Hence my objection to the member Archangel insulting me .
