I do not think that such a practice is possible in a great kilt to be honest. At least when speaking historically, we have only one example of a surviving greatkilt that is set up for use of a drawstring, and the loops are set evenly.

I've been researching how to pleat to sett and you have to make your pleats slightly longer than your sett. That involves to much measuring for a great kilt IMO. I am using the Baird tartan which has a purple pinstripe. I think I'm going to pleat to the stripe so the purple is exposed. I think that'll look pretty cool.
