Cornwall is a land rich in history, breathtaking landscapes, and vibrant culture. For those wishing to honour this heritage—or simply stand out in timeless style—the Cornish kilt offers a truly distinctive statement.
At Cornish Kilts, based in Callington, Cornwall, we celebrate this proud tradition by offering both kilt hire and styling expertise, ensuring you look and feel magnificent for your special occasion.
Why Choose a Cornish Kilt?
The kilt is more than just formalwear; it’s a symbol of identity, history, and pride. While many associate kilts with Scotland, Cornwall has its own rich kilt tradition, with distinctive tartans that celebrate our Celtic roots.
Wearing a Cornish kilt connects you with this unique heritage — whether you’re attending a wedding, prom, graduation, or formal event.
It offers:
A Unique Statement: Stand out from the crowd with an outfit that sparks admiration and celebrates individuality.
Cultural Connection: Embrace Cornwall’s Celtic heritage with an authentic Cornish tartan.
Comfort and Style: A well-fitted kilt is elegant, breathable, and surprisingly comfortable to wear all day.

Investing in a full kilt outfit is a meaningful decision — but for one-off occasions, kilt hire is a convenient and cost-effective choice.
