Is this manner of dress Biblical or NOT Biblical? Why?

But, Rambo
We Americans know that men wear pants and women wear skirts, don't they? Someone is sure to use Deuteronomy 22:5 (King James Version)
"The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God." to "prove" that men wearing kilts (or polynesian lava-lavas) is unholy.

No, no, no

No, Russell. If we have learned anything from this thread it is that anything in the Bible is to be equally applied to all people, in all time and cultures, and we can't appeal to cultural appropriateness as a defense.

(now where is that picture of me in one of kilts...)
Daughters wedding, I am the one on the right, SIL second from the left.
I'm the one laughing in the 3rd row....4th from the right. ;p
...
I don't have to prove God's existance. He's already proven that. I just have to prove that He lives within me.

If you are going to quote Deuteronomy in this case....ignoring the true meaning of that particular scripture...probably very Biblical....since Men & Women both wore "dresses" in Bible.
Although I've seen women wear skirts as ugly as those....they are modest. ;P
Now if they cut off a foot or so of fabric, giving the public glimpses of higher regions when they bend over....I would have to say no.
