I think it should look fantasic for this early style of tailored kilt, nice muted
colors. This will be my second tailored kilt, and my second box-pleat.
Beautiful tartan. I like the look of the belted plaid, but I once read an article on how one pleats and then dons the plaid, and after that, I thought it must be a pain to wear one--at least for a perfectionist like myself. Maybe one day I'll venture into the world of the Great Kilt, but I'm just too lazy for that right now :rolleyes:
