Goth Kilt?

Pretty tartan, but that kilt looks waaaay to lightweight for me.

Tripp kilts are VERY lightweight. I too have the all black version. (and yes they are a tad long, but look at the pic of the guy wearing the black one, it's definately below his navel) Because it's very light I find it perfect for a night of dancing in a sweaty nightclub. Also, the amount of chrome hardware on the kilt give it a very "punk rock" look. I got my on sale from Hottopic and only paid 50 bucks for it, and that included the shipping.

The Tripp kilts are one dimensional, by that I mean that they are not a very versatile garment at all. While I can wear an AK or UK in while doing
many different activities, the Tripp is only functional in certain situations.
But hey....if was cheap and does exactly what I bought it for.

I went to the Hot Topic Website looking for that thing and nothing came up... Odd.

uhm...then don't post??!! it's sort of a waste of space.
Anyway, back on topic. I couldn't find that tartan version on Hottopic either. I've had my plain black version for over a year now.
I'll try to post a pic of it. Don't let the wrinkles in that tartan put you off of the kilt itself. With a little ironing and the right accessories I think my black looks pretty cool. If not "subversive" and punky.

I couldn't even find the black. Im actually tempted to get one to wear around the house, or to the occasional outing.

They have been popping up on ebay a lot here lately.

Is this what you are looking for?
The same seller lists another two in a smaller size.

I tried to take a pic of the back to show you the pleats but it's just too black. My attempt at lightening it up with photoshop didn't help much either. Anyway, like I said above, it has very limited wearability. If you can get it cheap than go for it. If not, and you plan on buying a kilt you can wear alot of ways, then it's probably not the kilt for you.

C152T, I realize that your daughter is a goth, but you seem to know an awful lot about the dress and culture. Are you sure you're not a closet goth?
