Show us your Box-Pleated Kilts!

Maybe one of the Moderators can make this a sticky if we get enough replies.

There seems to have been many Box-Pleated kilts here on the forum of late.
Lets see them.
I'll start-Rob Roy "movie" tartan. Kilt made by Matt Newsome, its lovely, wearing it now.





Next in line is a early 19th century variant of Lamont by Peter MacDonald.
Kilt made by Wanda McSwain. I'm sure you folks have seen these photo's.





Box-Pleats....what can I say.
Please post any photo's.

yours, Aye

Dave

Clan Henderson, Weathered shade, by Matt Newsome.

Paired with tweed Argyll.


"Black Out"


And, of course, the pleats.

TB, I see you updated the kitchen tile and back splash to match the new kilt!

Well, seeing as how we have Casual, Dressy, and Formal pics as a sticky, I might as well add this one for you guys. Only because David White asked so nice though

Let's try and follow Panache's lead on those other threads and keep the posts to pics rather than hundreds of "looks great...." type posts.
