How about this ensemble?

It's a fair point. One of the benefits of having a kilt made in the civilian world is that it can be made to measure rather than getting a kilt issued that has been worn by several generations of soldiers and is a close approximation. While we're on the subject, I hear two different views on how high a kilt should go. One is that it should go to the naval and the other is that it should be two inches above the naval and align with one's bottom rib.

I have two kilts, one that goes to the naval which I prefer to wear with a tucked in shirt and one which goes to the two inches above line which I prefer to wear with my coatee as it guarantees no shirt peeking out below my waistcoat.

Is there a general consensus on which of these two measurements is preferable or is this another area of conjecture?

(I hope the thread isn't wandering too far off course...)
