    Not for me, that's for sure. The last picture looks like a reasonable outfit to me, though. But pleats in the front, shorts or whatever underneath, too long - I don't like those looks at all.

    I wholeheartedly agree with the Rabble - the idea is sound in theory, but horribley sad in execution. I can not STAND the W-I-D-E (or any!) pleats in front and the hip-hugger approach - no matter how "cutting edge" the style wants to appear. It's a KILT, wear it like one. Why can't society today just accept a masculine garmet (and the gentleman wearing it!) without trying to make it look cute or like it belongs on a tween? Sheesh.

    Yeah... What he said... Those things are the ugliest damned excuses for kilts that I have seen in a while... Ever since that thread in Kilts In The Media showed models wearing belted curtains trying to pretend to be kilts. I'll stick with my Flamingo and Amerikilts, thanks.
