EarthKilt Prototype
This is the kilt going to El Salvador. I had to make it REALLY fast (about 6-7 hours) so there's a goof, tho you can't tell in these pictures. It's basically a wide-apron X-kilt with a wide waistband instead of the usual narrow X-kilt waistband, and one or two little touches that you can't see unless you take it apart. This is the hemp/polyester mix fabric in "charcoal", after sitting on it in the car for 30 minutes....a bit wrinkled, but nothing like what a cotton kilt would be. The fabric is ruddy wonderful.. I liked it before I washed it, now that I've washed it, I LOVE it. I'm serious, this is wonderful stuff.
I want this kilt back...even if the Co-op decides not to do the project, I want this kilt back to wear!

Alan,
That was sexy! We can't have our supermodels smiling (or eating anything either for that matter! Lose 180 lbs. immediately before contacting the agency again )
I do have to ask
For your project, do these kilts have pockets or are they to be worn with a sporran?
I think you need to make a choice one way or another and show them being worn that way.
If these ever go into production I will be one of the first to buy one.
Cheers
Jamie
