It works. I did not do it, to be honest, it was like that when I got it. Whether to press the pleats depends, I guess, on if you want to make a permanent decision on its looking dressy and formal (pressed) or costumey and re enactorish (not pressed.) Of course, probably no one but die hard kilt wearers would probably notice the difference. If you decided on the former, I see no reason why you couldn't even sew the pleats down as far as the fell as is done in a modern kilt.
