For certain reasons, I have to wear my kilt at mid-knee to lower-knee. I try to go for mid-knee. However, I will change the hose according to your suggestion. Thanks for your help.

I don't think it's just the camera angle - if a camera held at eye level can't see any knee, neither can any other observer you encounter. Try hiking the kilt a smidge so that there's a bit of tartan to be seen above the belt. And I think your hose could stand a slightly wider cuff - pull the opening down to just below the widest part of your calf instead of just above it where you have it now, so that the cuff covers your calf and not the top of your shins.
A few minor adjustments and you're good to go - wear what you have, and wear it with pride and confidence, and you'll look like a million bucks!
Regards,
Rex.
