Ambrose and everyone else... it's easy to take care of that little problem by sewing down the hips. Take it down 1/3 the length of the kilt and the "Marilyn Monroe" look won't be so often. You'll also need to relocate the hip buckle to where you end the hip stitch. It looks much better there. (I love layman's terms).

The "new" Standard Kilts have a wider apron from the ones that StillWater has put out in the past. The one that I'm wearing now has the same apron width as the custom-made kilts. That, and the taper with the double-fringe, is a HUGE improvement!

Remember... this is for the STANDARD kilts, not the economy ones. It's worth the extra few bucks to upgrade.
