KILTS ARE TRADITIONALLY WORN IN CELTIC PARTS OF NORTHERN FRANCE The _Kilt Society de France_ association exists to bring together anyone in France who enjoys wearing a kilt. “We’re very
open,” says association secretary Gibert Josse. “As long as they wear a kilt properly, and can drink a bit of whisky, they’re welcome.” He stresses that a kilt is not a skirt. “We’re in the
21st century, so if women want to wear kilts, that’s fine – as long as they are not mini-kilts or maxi-kilts or anything like that. But very few of our female members do wear kilts. Some
wear tartan trousers, or dresses or skirts but in fact a kilt is meant to be worn by a man. My wife wears tartan trousers.” Kilts are traditionally worn in Ireland and Celtic parts of
northern France as well as in some Celtic parts of Spain. “Bretons are quite similar to Scots in many ways. It’s not just the question of kilts, in both cultures we know how to party all
night and still work hard all the next day.” RELATED ARTICLES FRENCH HIGHLAND DANCER PICKED TO PERFORM AT CORONATION PARTY CELEBRATE HAGGIS, WHISKY, AND THE AULD ALLIANCE IN FRANCE SCOTTISH
