We love seeing our amazing students in their national dresses - especially the kilt!
Figuring out how to wear an outfit so steeped in tradition and heritage can seem daunting, especially if you have never worn one before! Even if you've years of kilt wearing under your belt, remembering how to wear all the kilt accessories can be a challenge. We popped along to the experts at Georgian Dress Hire in Aberdeen to find out exactly how to do it!

I usually wear a belt when I wear a vest if it is quite short. And I have to attach my "pockets" somewhere. I use cartridge pouches that I carry on the right and left. This way I can store all my things without having to carry a sporran, or worse, a handbag.

There has been those that have said, "when wearing a vest there is no need to wear a belt", or even saying one shouldn't wear the belt & buckle when a vest covers it. I wear the belt & buckle anyhow. I wear the kilt in Australia mostly for Scottish Country Dance socials etc. EDIT: I see my question has already been answered by others here.

1:40 I'm a little confused. In another video, wearing a belt with a dress sporran was discouraged due to the belt buckle scratching the cantle. Is there an exception with a vest?

Actually, a belt should never be worn with a waistcoat regardless of whether you're looking at highland wear or ordinary business attire.

@usakilts 2 жыл бұрын

@@TheJTMcDaniel Is correct... never wear a belt if you have on a vest or a dress sporran (Day or Semi Dress sporrans are fine with a belt).

if you need to ask, you cannot afford it

Brad, it could possibly cost you between $700 to 1,000 depending on the weight and the yardage of tartan used to make the kilt. When you make a purchase they could ask you 1 which tartan 2 weight of the fabric 3 length in yards. Good luck.
