			Dressed-down kilt: Wales, 1952

 From the National Library of Wales,
 
 
  Models wearing a tartan skirt and kilt, Dinas Mawddwy Woollen Factory, 1 May 1952
I note the tucked in sweater vest and pushed down hose on the lad.
 The lass bears a resemblance to my mother from the same period.

Dancing The Reel of Tulloch in  1883
   
With Maiden Pap and Morven in the background an unamed ghillie 1935
 
1863 Prince Alfred
   
and finally to 1935 boys on their way to school on the Isle of Arran
   
I know I said "and finally" but I just think old Willie is fantastic, here is another photo of him
