Curious physics going on here...
For me, the shrinkage occurs within the confine of the wardrobe, as a perfectly fitting kilt and jacket get put away with care after wearing, and then seem to shrink a size before the next outing. What's going on..?
I think it is all this climate change we're being told about, and strange atmospherics occur in enclosed spaces, like wardrobes. I can't think what else it might be.

To be honest, there was some shrinkage in the wardrobe on that kilt, at least widthwise. Not showing in the current picture are the "kilt extenders". I can't blame that on Global Warming though. Rather an increase in diet and age. But mostly diet...

An amazingly common ailment many of us experience later in life.

Odd, too, that none of them ever seem to shrink lengthwise. We need our best physicists on this immediately.
