Clan Chiefs and how they pleat their kilts

[Farlander]

Actually, the more that I look at the photo, the more I'm thinking that this kilt may have typical narrow pleats, but be pleated to alternate lines, mening the yellow/white stripes only appear on every other pleat.

I see what you mean. I have never seen or thought of pleating in this way. For this tartan, it makes for a very attractive pattern!

Has anyone ever seen this done before? What would you call this, "pleat to alternating stripe"?

Very elegant and impeccably made.
