It must use the old "belt" fastening where you have a belt (and not a strap) sewn on the under apron which then goes through the normal "buttonhole" on the left side of the kilt all around the outside of the back of the kilt and then through a buckle on the right hip finishing, like this one, with the belt "pointing" forwards. It's an old system, not used very much nowadays.
