Pleat the kilt?

[NewPiperinNY]

The material look great. So the sett is 5" (measurement from the first with stripe in your picture to the third white stripe)
Need a couple of measurements: Waist (about the navel), Hips (widest part of your bum), and drop (your measurement from your navel to the top of your knee caps).

Cheers,

W = 52 "
H = 48"
Drop = 22"

yup... I am a tubby... though on the way down (started a lisfestyle change in earnest.. though beer might get in the way)

I wonder.. is it possible to just have it pleted and put 2 belt loops, without putting side belts? That way it still sits like a philabeg (laying over the top of the belt). Is

Certainly: that's what Celtic Croft calls "cheater pleats." Probably the most straightforward approach would be to decide how you want to pleat it, pin it up that way, and run a couple of lines of stitching where the belt goes. if you like, add belt loops in a complementary color.

If you continue to lose weight, this would be easy to undo and redo at a smaller waist size, should you wish to adjust it.
