Last week I was caught in the rain in my kilt and then had to sit through the convocation ceremony at Knox College, my alma mater. (see the photos here http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/f...reunion-84139/ )

During the ceremony I repressed my wet pleats with my backside. Do I need to baste to press them out or can I do it free hand. It is just the very bottom of the pleats that seem to have wandered off. Here are a couple of photos. The middle pleat seems to be the worst as it seems to have twisted a little.
