What is Traditional Highland Dress?

[MacLowlife]

That's FEE NAY, as in THE END. I am fairly certain I looked in on this topic yesterday and today I find three or four pages of not very much at all.

What often frustrates me about the Traditional Highland Dress forum is that there are so few topics- and now and then way too many posts on the few that appear. I am genuinely grateful for everyone's opinions and edifying comments, but I would humbly request that someone introduce a NEW topic and let's see if we can throw a few rocks at it for a while. And while I am ranting, I'd like to suggest that topics addressed in the last six weeks be rotated off- i.e., check the search feature before asking any of these:
1) What's wrong with the PC
2) What's wrong with white hose
3) What color X should I wear with my Y
4) Why shouldn't I wear a ( jabot, bow tie, tartan tie, etc) with my ( day coat, PC, doublet, piping rig)?

Oh, and PLEASE consider actually placing a ghillie brogue in your mouth and biting down before asking / telling about their appropriateness, tradition, evolution, etc.

So, what's on your mind? Any topics for discussion appeal to you right now?

Then honestly: what's the point of the forum? I'm sorry, but some folks like discussing the traditions and evolution of Highland dress. If you don't, then don't read the threads, but let's not trod down the path of unofficial censorship.

I suppose the nature of emphasizing Tradition is that you can get stuck in it; anything new is something other.
