How NOT to Wear the Kilt
I am sure this poor guy has no idea that he is wearing the kilt so wrong. I would have hoped they’d have sorted him out at the “Celtic-themed shop”. His kilt is on backwards. Not only that, but the waist is too low. And the lower edge is half way down his calves! Sadly, he seems to think this look will drive women wild… perhaps if he had it right.
For reference, the pleats of a kilt go in the back. The waist, unless it is a casual kilt or a military kilt, is normally worn just above the navel. Military kilts are worn has high as the lower ribs. The waistline he has would be fine for a casual kilt, though larger guys (myself included) find it more flattering to wear casual kilts near the navel as well. The selvedge (lower kilt edge) should be worn from middle of the knee at the lowest, up to a bit above the knee. Covering the knee entirely makes a kilt look odd, like a boy in a dress.


Long have men been subject to the poor and limited choices offered by the Trouser Tyrants. Pants are dead! Long Live the Kilt!
