Love them
My son and his party in his wedding all wore kilts
They found a place in Kearny that rents them
They chose I think it's called the Black Guard or Black watch plaid
The ladies all wore black gowns and it really looked great

Yes they did. My WWII vet dad said they use to refer to them as "The Ladies from Hell". They would ski down from the hills in their kilts and surprise their enemies. Tough bunch of "broads" |

They have a Scottish bagpiper parade every year as well. Last one had over 10,000 pipers in kilts..and it was a very windy day |
