I was at a Ren fair today, this was a first for me but as I wear a kilt on a daily basis, I thought I would go ahead and wear one. I was toying with the idea of a great kilt as I have 5 yards of tartan here that I could do that with. However I decided that as it was rather hot out today a 4 yard box pleat would be a better bet, at least it is an older style of pleating. People absolutely loved seeing the kilt, I was asked a few times for directions within the castle, I was asked to have my photo taken, many people took me for one of the actors in period garb. Normally I find the Ghillie shirt a bit theatrical, however for this setting it's simply subdued. So here are a few photos of what I wore.





Now was it historic? Well parts of it are but no it is more a feeling of history than history itself, I hope this helps a wee bit.
