    Yup - the fit looks good. By the way I measure, though, that's a 24" length plus a 2" rise.

    Yeah, that's right Barb, thanks. I remember reading about the true formal fitting concept with the kilt length being taken from the top of the hip and the rise then usually being 2 inches or so above that to get to the navel. Everybody I have ordered from just wanted the overall length so that is what I am most used to giving.
