Typically, one does not wear a kilt belt with a waistcoat, so this may be a consideration. Sporran height (and suspension) may be a consideration when figuring waistcoat "hemline"? Perhaps your daughter might be able to connect with bespoke tailors/purveyors of highland wear for some advice? Best of luck.
As my waistline is reducing, (approximately 4 inches in the last 1-1/2 years, since I retired a few months ago, I am more active now that I am no longer in a cube farm and the reduction rate is picking up.) I plan on using a more traditional sporran belt / chain to resolve that issue...
The kilt belt itself is straight forward to modify. (already reduced it by 4 inches, and almost 1.5 inches more or two notches since then).
