It's a bit awkward-looking, but if I have to pick something up off the ground, I do a sort of combination between bending and squatting. It almost looks like a curtsy. I kind of fold my knees under me, dropping one leg back, so the kilt pretty much just lowers itself straight down. It'll get me close enough to the ground where I can reach with my arm to pick up the object.
