Kilts and costumes

[pipesndrumsnun]

Hmmm...very, very interesting discussion you've got going on here!

Fascinating discussion here. I have been to several Renn Faires where very bad attempts at highland dress were to be seen. Mind you, it was by the public, not the actual Rennies.

To add to this discussion, and perhaps to redirect fire....

I work at a lot of Highland Games, as many of us XMarks members do. From time to time, I see the Renn Faire crowd wandering the Games, dressed as fairies and such. There are even a small crowd that attends both the Loch Norman Games and Grandfather Mountain Games that show up in a mix of pirate gear and tie-dye kilts (Saints preserve us!).

For me, the jury is out about wearing a kilt at a Halloween party. Many sides to the argument to consider.

That being said, those that show up to Highland Games (where our heritage is being celebrated) in fantasy clothing need to be introduced to the business end of my Claymore.

Another round of whisky? My shout, folks.
