HRH Duke of Rothesay at Knockando Woolmill opening

Looks to me like both are pleated to the dark line in the green band; it's just that this line doesn't show up very well on the BW kilt because the green is dark. No Scottish military kilt has alternating pleats; all pleats are pleated to the same line in all the former kilted regiments. (No I'm not talking about Canadian military kilts, just Scottish ones.)

Look closely at the "open" pleat that's right of center (follow the back of the top right waist buckle down to the bottom of the kilt) and you'll see the GREEN in the very deepest part of the pleat. Also, if you look closely at the upper portion, you'll see every other pleat appears 'black' and alternating pleats appear dark blue.

I stand corrected! I do see the green deep inside the pleat, now that you point it out.
