For a garment so deeply rooted in one corner of the world, it’s interesting—actually, surprising—to see how far the kilt has traveled. Not just geographically, but culturally. What began as traditional Highland wear has found its way onto city streets, into weddings, onto sports fields, fashion runways, and even, in quieter ways, into everyday wardrobes….
The Scottish kilt is so iconic now that it’s hard to imagine a time before it. That crisp pleating, the weight of the wool, the swing of the fabric as someone walks—it’s practically shorthand for “Scotland.” But the truth is, kilts are a relatively recent chapter in a much longer story.
