On close inspection, it looks like he bought a kilt to fit him at the hips. If you look inside his shirt opening, you can just see his belly poking out above the kilt.
I'm guessing this is a fellow who, on a whim and without doing any homework, bought an $800 kilt, following all the standard measurements except the waist. When he got it, he didn't know to remove the basting stitches, or which side is the front, or that it's about 4 inches too long.
Fortunately, not all is lost: all of his errors can be fixed with some hard work to lose that beer belly (and maybe setting the buckles at the kilt's maximum expansion), and by turning the kilt around and removing the basting stitches.
