History of scottish skirt
Think ‘Scotland’ and you probably imagine three things: haggis, bagpipes and kilts. One of the most intersesting things for us – kilt. Kilt has long history. I think that many people interested about history of kilt.
We know today kilt is considered a traditionnal clothes of scotland
Originating in the Scottish Highland dress for men, it is first recorded in the 16th century as the great kilt, a full-length garment whose upper half could be worn as a cloak. The small kilt or modern kilt emerged in the 18th century, and is essentially the bottom half of the great kilt. Since the 19th century, it has become associated with the wider culture of Scotland, and more broadly with Gaelic or Celtic heritage.

Although the kilt is most often worn by men on formal occasions and at Highland games and other sports events, it has also been adapted as an item of informal male clothing, returning to its roots as an everyday garment. Kilts are now made for casual wear in a variety of materials. Alternative fastenings may be used and pockets inserted to avoid the need for a sporran. Kilts have also been adopted as female wear for some sports.
The kilt first appeared as the great kilt, the breacan or belted plaid, during the 16th century
There is a legend aboutthe battle of clans in the country. The legend is about how the Scots defeated an army of 7.000 Irishmen in a battle between the mountains of Scotland and Ireland, when the scots, who were not afraid of the mountains, took off their kilts and tought in one shirt
