Hello, and thank you for letting me in!

I’ve just had a kilt made to measure for my wedding. I was blown away by all the choices one can make—it was quite the experience!
It turned out pretty well, and I’m happy with the result overall.

I’m still new to all of this, so I thought I’d reach out to you knowledgeable folks for some advice.

First off, I’m very happy with my kiltmaker. Their service has been excellent from the very first contact and continues to be.

That said, there’s one thing I feel might be off with my kilt. I’ve emailed them about it (the kiltmaker is in Edinburgh, and I live in Norway), and they say it’s normal and can be pressed out. I’d just like a second opinion.

I’ve attached some photos to illustrate. Along the seam—what I believe might be called the fell line?—where the “loose” part of the pleat is sewn in, the fabric appears to pull slightly to one side and then back. It’s as if the pleat hits a slight “bump” instead of falling in a straight line. If I gently pull on the seam, it straightens out, but it springs back as soon as I let go.
It's seen best when I wear the kilt, ref attached photos.

Anyone seen anything like this before?
Is this a sign of an issue in the making, or is it indeed something that can be corrected with pressing, as they suggest?
I haven't tried pressing yet, as no one around here has experience in pressing kilt, and i'm a little hesitant to do it myself.

Thank you very much!
