    How about historic "costume," as Jay suggests? This is how I would wear a kilt on Halloween:

    Darn you! I was about to make the same comment. Personally, I have dumped too much time, money and effort into my own Jacobite ensemble to be able to justify spending more money on a Party City costume. And besides, my Renaissance Scots outfit looks way better. (It's not as good as yours yet- my doublet is still in the making and I haven't gotten a pair of buckle shoes or diced socks- but it's coming along nicely. I just ordered my bonnet this weekend as a matter of fact! I'm stoked to get it.)
