I remember with some amusement the photograph of a jacket offered by a Pakistani firm which was normal 'Saxon' length, but had flaps added to the bottom edge. I am sure it was done from simply not knowing what was wanted, but it does show what can happen.
I happened to develop a reverse Kingussie style kilt for myself - I wanted to ride my bicycle more comfortably, so when I lost some weight I remade my kilts with a centre back box pleat and mirror imaged small pleats and then I lost more weight and narrowed the aprons rather than redo the pleats again. I even did one in black cotton, having never seen a Utilikilt up close enough to pinch the design. I suspect that most RevK black cotton kilts are wannabe Utilikilts, though.
