To alter, or not to alter
This is my dad's old kilt of the Murray tartan, of which I am now the proud owner. I understand a kilt of proper length should reach about to the top or middle of the knee. This one comes to just below my knee, and I have it higher up on the waist than I'd like it. My question is does it look too terrible to wear like this?

A friend of mine who knows about sewing says you should never hem it up from the bottom, you have to take it in from the top. I didn't quite understand the reasoning for this, but it seems like a huge undertaking.
