HISTORICAL DRAPED & TAILORED GARMENTS


KILT


The kilt is a knee-length garment with pleats at the rear, originating in the traditional dress of men and boys in the Scottish Highlands of the 16th century.


It is most often made of woollen cloth in a tartan pattern.


Though the Scottish kilt is most often worn mainly on formal occasions or at Highland Games and sports events, it has also been adapted as an item of fashionable informal, and formal, male clothing in recent years.
