Is this a joke? unbelievable.

The designer of the uniform to be worn by Scottish athletes at the Glasgow 2014 opening ceremony believes she would have "got it wrong" if everyone liked it.

The clothing has split opinion, with athletes and organisers said to have given a "favourable reaction" but many people continue to ridicule the outfits on social media.

Team Scotland describes the male uniform as a "turquoise, fuchsia, navy blue and caramel" tartan kilt with a blue shirt, while the women will wear a "flowing wrap-around dress", said to be inspired by the Saltire flag.

    I suspect the only reason organisers think it's ok is because they have to. The designer looks like Boy George during the dark days. Should have set off alarm bells.

    That is absolutely ridiculous!

    Love to have seen some of the ideas that got rejected.

    ...and what is the shoe policy?
    One girl in brown like the boys, weak-kneed lady in white.

    Let them go, independence will be wasted on them.

    The real reason Chris Hoy has retired becomes clear.

    You give them just a little bit of freedom and this is what they do with it. If this doesn't tell Scots they aren't capable of life outside the union I don't know what will.

    From the ITV website
    Women will also wear a stone-coloured leather bag across their bodies to imitate the St Andrew's flag, while men will carry a traditional sporran.

    surely they need one on both sides then, otherwise its only half a cross

    On BBC Breakfast this morning. Some great comments: "The '70s called, they want their tartan back" and "Somebody's stolen my picnic blanket". #laughingstock
    Anyway - bastards - because of that I can't get a sodding Bay City Rollers song out of my head!

    "We're set on flowery baby blue, but cant quite decide on the shade of brown to compliment it"

    "Have you considered 'dog shit'?"

    "Perfect!"

    I support the union of England and Scotland, but they're not making it easy for me.
