I tried the standard wooden clamp but for some of the heavier kilt (eg., SWK Wool Ancient Lamont) I felt like the small clamp wasn't quite wide enough to keep the kilt from being pulled down on the outside edges. The solution was easy and relatively inexpensive. SWK sells a larger sized clamp type that supports almost the entire width of the kilt (stored as described above - as if it is being worn). I only ordered three but I am going to get some more. I find the UK is heavy enough to slip off the hangers with the two clips (it needs a clamp style).
Here's the LINK. I know they are $6.50 (+ shipping) but you paid a lot for that kilt, why not invest in a stury hanger for it too (especially the heavy wool ones)?

Agree with the cedar lined closet. I lined mine with cedar chip board from the Home Depot (about $20 per 4X8 foot sheet). Every Spring and Fall (when I change the clocks for day light saving), I take the clothes out, put them on the bed and run a sandpaper over the surface to reactivate the cedar-y smell. Was a great and easy solution to an expensive cedar closet.
