    Wonderful looking kilt! This garment has obviously been looked after over the last half century. I'm wondering if it might not be prudent, before having it drycleaned, to tack down the pleats... the way kilts come from the kiltmaker. Just a thought.

    I think your right, I've been thinking the very same thing.
    On a side note the kilt came with no belt loops or inner apron fixing method and no evidence of there ever having been any ! with this in mind I added some ties.
