Sorry not to be clear it was the webbing-ness of the belts which - I think - keeps the kilt fairly secure.
You seemed a little concerned that you might suffer a costume malfunction, but the webbing seems to hold the fabric well, where they are in contact, but I have experienced the under apron sliding down and the lower edge appearing below the front apron, hence the safety pin and the intention of Velcro.

Ah, no, the concern was my waist growing and my seat shrinking. You know....no longer having the prime benies of the youth that once was mine.

This is actually an old idea. There are historic examples with a single buckle and strap in this manner.

I plan on making a box pleated kilt with that type of closure.
