Like furry celt, I have worn more belted plaids than actual kilts. Most of mine weren't wool, so finding full width was easy enough. I tended to use pv in any tartan looking pattern, liking the lighter weight for summer events. I rarely pulled it over my head, but I could carry a sixpack in the side pouch without anyone being able to tell.

The youtube instrutional video I thought was pretty good. The are quite clean instructions and match up with my personal experience except at the end there. Instead of taking one section up over the shoulder and tucking it in in the front, bring the other side around front and pin them together near the shoulder.

I also cheated and stiched the pleats in place (just a quick line, not pleat by pleat) so I didnt have to redo it every time. I could also get dressed in a dummy dome, on occasion in the dark in someone else's tent ;) It was easier to to get dressed standing up if the top sections were still pinned.
