Solid. Lady Chrystel does impeccable work. I just wish more people wearing kilts would represent better. I understand that some have to try and make it their own style... but there's a certain point of missing the mark where it's hard to tell if they even made an effort. Case in point: Snoop Dogg. While not worn correctly, he pulled it off very well. If Mr Gadd would have had the length of the jacket brought up just 4cm and maybe cut high on the sleeves at 10mm or so to show some cuff while resting (siimilar to the Bolero cut), he could have gotten away with the rest. It just looks like he's wearing the kilt at the belly line rather than true waist making his legs look extremely short. The lack of a small drop from the true waist to the top of the day-wear sporran just over emphasizes the effect.
