This season for a plaid skirt has become a real renaissance. Descending from the Scottish mountains, a daring bright kilt conquers a fashionable catwalk with refined simplicity.
Fashion is always a little unexpected. So, the trend of the fall season - a skirt in a cage - is a variation of the traditional Scottish kilt. And it is no accident: in fact, this simple wraparound skirt is one of the most convenient and functional models in fashion history.
Kilt was returned to fashion by English designers, who, as you know, have been at the forefront of the fashion industry for the past half century. Initially, this outfit was worn by men and it was a checkered woolen blanket, which later became a distinctive symbol of the aristocratic clans of Scotland. From a long skirt of a male type, the kilt turned into a women's plaid skirt in the middle of the 19th century. Warm woolen flannel was enjoyed by English fashionistas. Today you can choose the colors and styles for your style and image.
Kilt is combined with almost anything. It looks especially good with a knitted top (plain or suitable color), a jacket in a classic or sports style.
Tip: look at models with a double layer of fabric, this original technique is the novelty of the season.

Folds
Again, historically, the number of folds per kilt depended on the hierarchy within the clan and the degree of its elitism. But designers boldly use the traditions of the Scottish aristocracy in fashion trends.

Fastening belts are a kilt brand name. But today, this option is also a stylish decor.
