A standing method of pleating and wearing the great kilt. What I have found is that u need to have a smooth loose "belt" which eliminates the wide belts with large buckles we all use.
A length of cord tied about yr waist would do well. Pleat the kilt and hang it over yr shoulder, pull the aprons around and tie a rope or climbing sling about you at your hips or higher. Arrange the pleats and the aprons and THEN put on yr belt, removing the rope/ sling thereafter. It took me 10 minutes to do so by the clock. There are fewer and less precise pleats (8-10).
