I don't see how this tartan pleated to the stripe is very different from many other tartans pleated to the stripe which hide one colour or another in the pleats. I reference again the Artic and Antarctic tartan kilts sewn by Barb T. which she's posted photos of. The two kilts each effectively hide one predominant colour in the pleats, which can only be seen when the wearer is walking. If you view these kilts from the side it looks almost as though they're made of two different tartans, since the pleats look very different from the sett. I think this looks fabulous, as do I think the St. David's kilt does. Yes, it's different from how you might normally see it, but is that a bad thing? I have some Welsh in my blood, and I'd very much be seen (alive and) dead in this kilt.
