I can't see the top straps because your belt and sporran are in the way in the photos.

If the Kilt is made properly the smallest part of the waist should be at the center of the top strap. The Kilt should then flare back out above the straps.

When you put on the Kilt don't think about where it fits in the front. It's in the back that will tell.

Place your hand with the fingers spread around your side. Your fingers should be touching your spine and covering where your kidneys are. Your thumb should be just below your ribs.

Then bend sideways toward your thumb. Can you feel your thumb go into a small space just below the ribs and about equal to your kidneys?

That's your natural waist. Then strap on the Kilt with the top straps at the place your thumb was and voila. A properly worn Kilt.

Then the Kilt Belt goes on right on top of the top straps.

The Sporran should then go on and be high enough for it to sit on the lower part of your stomach. If it gets too low the sporran strap will catch on the aprons and cause them to pucker up.

Yes, it will feel strange there at first. But after you have worn it a few minutes it will start to feel very secure and protective there.
