Forgive me if I'm being picky but I think the garment we are discussing is closer to a half-slip than a slip. A slip covers much of the upper body as well as the waist, hips, and thighs. Assuming that the kilt already has adequate lining at and above the waist, all we need in addition is coverage from the waist to a bit short of the bottom edge of the kilt. I have heard such a garment called an "under-kilt"; that seems to me a reasonable name.

What material to use depends on the actual cause of the irritation. If it is only abrasion then a slippery material such as nylon tricot or a soft material such as cotton flannel would probably work, but if it is some sort of chemical reaction with something in the wool then a less porous material (nylon raincoat material?) may be necessary.

If you are considering acetate for any clothing be sure to read the threads which describe how vigorously acetate burns.
