Scottish attire is often characterized by the traditional kilt, a knee-length skirt-like garment made of tartan fabric. The kilt is typically worn by men and is accompanied by accessories such as a sporran (a small pouch), gaiters (leg coverings), and a sgian-dubh (a small knife worn in the sock). Women may wear a kilted skirt or a tartan dress, often paired with a blouse and cardigan. Both men and women may also don a tartan scarf or shawl to complete their outfits, especially during formal occasions or cultural celebrations.
