At halloween, I wore my kilt, with jacobite shirt. My wife has a red tartan skirt, but didn't want to wear it. (men wore kilts, after all). So she sewed an old-fashioned "poofy" dress, for herself. It's made from a shiny material. Has a midriff of a different, but accent color, sewn in. It looks great on her. So, next year, at the AZ Ren Fest, (if I can talk her into it), she'll wear her dress, and me in my kilt outfit. Hopefully I'll have a few more accessories by then. Looking around the AZ Ren fest, which I recently attended, I saw women dressed as pirates, as wenches, as belly dancers, medieval or rennaisance women. Then I saw some, who had a combo of things on their costumes: like a "wench" dress, with blingy-looking belly dancer things hanging from their waists, and some with hats. Pirate, Scottish highlander, you name it, I saw it. The key is to be COMFORTABLE. Saw one guy, dressed like Atilla the Hun, or Genghis Kahn (not sure), with furs and a blanket, as part of his costume, in ARIZONA?!?!?!?! Oh well, to each his own.
