Royal wedding inivtation: Dress

[JSFMACLJR]

This being an internationally attended event, in the home region of the kilt, perhaps it's wearing should be reserved to those of the Highlands. There was a thread a while ago about appropriate kilt attire for a U.N function, this has the same feel to me.

London is hardly the "home region" of the kilt. There are a great many gentlemen from the Highlands who NEVER wear the kilt south of the Highland Line. They might wear it to a ball ( the Callie comes to mind ), but that's about it.

London is hardly the "home region" of the kilt. There are a great many gentlemen from the Highlands who NEVER wear the kilt south of the Highland Line. They might wear it to a ball ( the Callie comes to mind ), but that's about it.

I guess I should clarify, I was using "region" to refer to that part of the world, not to infer that London was the home of the kilt. My concern was for someone outside of the U.K. to wear a kilt in "that part of the world", so close to the Highlands, to a formal day event, it may be assumed that the person is a Highlander. And, like the discussions in the thread about a non-Highlander wearing a kilt to a U.N function, that there may be a potential to be perceived as a "poser".

Regarding those who would "NEVER wear a kilt south of the Highland line", would a Royal wedding also be an example of when those same Highlanders may in fact wear a kilt outside of the Highlands ?
