Can I wear my wife's family too?

The "revival" of the kilt had very little to do with the repeal of the Act of Proscription, and everything to do with Sir Walter Scott making a romantic vision of the Highlands popular, and Queen Victoria making all things Scottish suddenly fashionable.[//QUOTE]





There are plenty of primary sources showing people were still wearing kilts, and tartan for that matter, during Proscription. I think it was mainly, if not exclusively, in the Highlands and Islands, though... not counting the military kilts, of course.

And those who were in with "the man"

And those who were in with "the man"

Oddly enough, it was a discussion here on the forum about Adam Smith's The Wealth of Nations that led me to look into it just a little. The introduction, in particular. But, he "da man."
