The postman called this morning with a parcel from Pakistan.

I had been on the lookout for a reasonably priced Saffron kilt for my collection for a while, this had seemed to offer the best value for money despite the cost of delivery from Pakistan. Kilt is labelled as 80% acrylic, 20%wool, and has a nice soft feel to the material.

I had waited just over a month since ordering this kilt. There is a generous quantity of pleats (I counted them as 32) and unlike some of the cheaper Pakistani kilts, this kilt has a proper stitched down fell. The pleats were protected in transit by basting strips, but even so, some creasing has occurred in carriage where the kilt was wrapped in a cellophane bag inside a jiffy bag.

Another pleats shot.
