Etymology

The word 'kilt' comes from the Old Norse word 'kilta', which means to tuck up or gather. The garment originated in Scotland in the 16th century, initially as a full-length garment known as the 'great kilt'. Over time, it evolved into the modern kilt we see today, which became popularized as a symbol of Scottish heritage and culture. The kilt is traditionally made from woolen fabric and features patterns known as tartans, which are associated with specific Scottish clans. The adoption of the kilted style signifies both a cultural identity and a sense of pride in Scottish traditions. In contemporary times, kilted attire has gained popularity beyond Scotland, with many people embracing the garment for various formal occasions and events.
