My American daughter in Morrison’s today. She didn’t know what a kilt was. She said it very loudly because she thought it was super progressive.

The modern kilt is a relatively recent invention, like a lot of Scottish “invented traditions” its use and meaning today is largely down to Walter Scott in the 19th Century. So I like to think Scotsmen wholeheartedly grabbed onto the opportunity to wear a dress as soon as it became fashionable again. Not that I’d say this to my sister-in-law who was born in Sconny Botland and whose mum is Scottish.
