I recall a thread on this, and it all came down to which material is being used.
If it's wool, it's a un-tapered tube because the wool stretches and can form compound curves.
Anything else, it's what the Wizard says.
Looking at it again, you do have a one inch difference... Have no idea if that small of a difference matters in whether it is tapered or not.
Disclaimer: I'm not a kiltmaker, but I have the same hip and waist measurements aprox so I paid attention to that thread. Eh, I have snake hips...
* Sorry, Cool Bob, thought you were saying you are going to make your own kilt using Barb's book. Doesn't look that way from the other posts, so this post probably doesn't apply. *

Reason: Misunderstood question.
I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
