Where do you wear your kilt?

[Jock Scot]

I suspect that it depends how the kilt is made. Bespoke? Customised? Made to measure? These terms can mean much the same, but they do imply a certain amount of individual measurements have been taken , whilst off the peg does not. So it really does depend -----plus, if you add personal preference to how the kilt should sit to the measurements, then it can depend quite a lot.

I was always taught it is the the bottom of the kilt ----the hem for ease of description-----and where it sits in relation to your knee-cap is paramount and to a point, the top can look after itself. But on average perhaps for kilts where your input of measurements are involved and a certain amount of advice from the kilt maker then, somewhere around the belly button or an inch or two higher would be somewhere near.

No doubt every kilt maker and every kilt-wearer will have there own view on this, but I doubt that there will be major disagreements over this, apart from-------where the kilt selvedge(hem) should sit!
