You just need to be sure that the lower part is the correct size and not relying on the upper part for support.

very possible to do indeed! This is what was exactly done with my current kilt. I have a Cameron Highlanders kilt that I cut from the top to give it a more civilian look. The only issue with this is that the stabilizer is in that upper portion, and when I cut it down, I had to build in a new stabilizer. While I had the lining out, I simply did a fine hem on the top instead of adding a binding tape.
