The Scottish kilt is usually worn with kilt [[hosiery|hose]] (woollen socks), turned down at the knee, often with garters and flashes, and a {{lang|gd|[[sporran]]}} ([[Scottish Gaelic|Gaelic]] for "purse": a type of pouch), which hangs around the waist from a chain or leather strap. This may be plain or embossed leather, or decorated with sealskin, fur, or polished metal plating.

Other common accessories, depending on the formality of the context, include:

* A belt (usually with embossed buckle)
* A jacket (of various traditional designs)
* A [[kilt pin]]
* A {{lang|gd|[[sgian-dubh]]}} (Gaelic: "black knife": a small sheathed knife worn in the top of the hose)
* [[Ghillie brogues]]
* Occasionally worn with a [[ghillie shirt]], although this is more casual and, being a relatively modern invention, should not be confused with actual historic garments.
