women in kilts

[M. A. C. Newsome]

I say; why not?
Last weekend in Edinburgh I saw the most beautifull (gents) kilts but for the woman there wasn,t that much to choose from.
Not even at the mill, mayby it,s bacause I come too much in Edinburgh but i,ve seen the ladies kilts again and again ...........
For the men,s kilts there ,s a range of different tartans and colors(ofcourse)
Someday I will buy myself the saltire.

I'm not sure I understand the frustration here. Lady's tartan skirts can be made in a wide range of tartans and colors, just like men's kilts. And as far as options go, you can have a standard lady's kilt skirt made knee length, above the knee, below the knee, or full length. You can also have a skirt made with pleats all around (at any length), as well as a straight, unpleated skirt (again, at any length). As for accessories, you can wear matching tartan sash, or a shawl, or a serape, or a cape, or a tam, or none of the above. I think that women who think they don't have as many "options" as the men in terms of tartan clothing and accessories might not be looking hard enough. I'm remembering that mega-thread Alan H started a while back, "For the lassies..." It had some great examples.
