  • Skirts for women, trousers for men
    Fashion as any different part of human life has it's own stereotypes. Many years ago it was said: tights, scarves, skirts, long hair and make up are for women, trousers, ties, short hair and suits are for men. Are those days a history now?
  • The power of kilts
    "A man in a kilt is a man and a half."
    ~ Sir Colin Campbell

    Kilts, as we know them, were adapted from 16th century Highland garments that are believed to have been heavily influenced by the clothing worn by the Vikings and Normans that conquered the British Isles in the 8th Century. The word kilt is thought to come from the Danish word "kilte," meaning "to tuck up" which is believed to have been derived from "kjalta," meaning "to tuck up a garment or to secure hanging fabric with a belt" in Old Scandinavian and/or the Old Norse word "kjilt," meaning "pleated or folded fabric layers.”
