My kilts don't collect dust. In fact, when dust sees me coming, it runs in the opposite direction and cowers in the corners.
I've been scaring off a LOT of dust, apparently, judging by the corners in my house.

Interesting... I wonder if I could just vacuum the loose hair directly off the cats...
One of the problems is that we have lots of haboobs out here.
I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

I do want to make sure that I keep my kilt, the Stillwater Half Lamont, in good shape and not dammage it with anything. Even though it's a "cheap" kilt in a lot of ways, I'm hoping I can keep it looking good along with the rest of the outfit.
* Now that I think about it, the rest of the outfit is kind of "cheap" too. But that's what I have. *

There are air-tight bags on the market to hold clothes, and other items. They are not made to keep dust out, specifically, but rather to take up less space in your closet. You hook them up to a vacuum cleaner and suck most of the air out. I bet they would work well for you.

I've heard of those, and I think they have them at Walmart. Although, I have heard negative things about the bags not staying... decompressed for too long. Guess you don't have to vacuum the air out of them to get the dust proof effect...

Space bag + cat = waste of money.
Bought one, filled it, sucked air out, cat jumped on it and popped it.

I get your point...
Is it popping it when you let the air back in? I don't know...
Now that I think about it, that would be funny. It would suddenly expand under the cat as it filled with air.
