Million Skirted Men To Gather in NYC

Bravehearts meet for the Braveheart:Men In Skirts Exhibition at the New York Metropolitan Museum

We are inviting all skirted men to converge on the New York Metropolitan Museum the weekend of February 7th and 8th to show support for the exhibition, the clothes designers who are exhibiting there and to make a statement to the world that men want the option of a MUG (male Unbifurcated garment) in their wardrobe. Wear your kilts, skirts, sarongs, etc. to this event and let the world know that you are in support of this fashion for men.

If you plan on attending this event please email Tom Manuel of Tom's Cafe' as soon as possible so we have some idea as to how many people will be attending. Advance planning is needed for groups to get into the exhibit.

The last weekend for the exhibit is: February 7/8 2004. Information regarding this event will be followed every few days and will be published on The Updates page on an on-going basis until the event.

. . . Press Release:

On February 7th, 2004 the New York Metropolitan Museum will be filled with more than mannequins during the Bravehearts: Men In Skirts exhibition. Actual members of the kilt-wearing group called the Bravehearts will be present. Yes, these are the men who have chosen the option of wearing the kilt/skirt, commonly called a MUG, (Male Unbifurcated Garment) in stead of trousers and pants all the time. Representatives of the Bravehearts (from around the world), and an organization of Women who support them, will be attending this exhibition and event on February 7th as a way of promoting the fashion as well as creating awareness of this lifestyle. The Braveheart members have been "kilting" long before the garment ever graced the men's fashion stage. In fact, the Bravehearts have been opting for the kilt/skirt over pants as far back as the 1980's in the U.S. alone.
