"Standard" is a misnomer. "Average" or "median" would be a better descriptor. One might be misled into thinking that greater or lesser than "standard" is non-standard.

The correct length is one that suits ones height and proportions correctly. It is possible to wear a kilt of the correct length, incorrectly though.
