Descending from a Scottish line (northern Scotland, mother's side), I do love a kilt.
Intrepid readers will remember that I even wore full Highland dress (was a sergeant[!]) in the Black Watch Cadet Core while in boarding school.
And as much as I love a kilt, I also admire a good kilt pun.
A favorite is the closing line from Anthony Lane'e review of Braveheart: "Faster, pussycat! Kilt! Kilt!"
And while the "Dressed to Kilt" fashion show pun may be a little obvious, all is forgiven with this image of the lovely Miss Scotland, Katharine Brown, wearing a beautiful tartan. Those shoes!!!

A good kilt brings out the Scottish in me too. (Please God, let me find my Highlander)
And yes, adorable shoes.
Kilt-tastic!
I suppose it's too predictable to say you're kilting me with your puns. . .
My husband wears a kilt frequently (both dress and modern casual), so yes, I've heard all the puns, jokes, off color comments...
Puns aside, I have never wanted a slit-to-there tartan gown quite so badly. Nor a frivolous little percher top hat with extravagant feathers (OK, I'm lying about the hat).
I'm kilty of loving them too.
I want the dress!
