    As you can see the lowest strap is pulling the backside of the apron forward (ugly folds) and it opens the right side pleats.
    Tomorrow my mother in law* will move the strap forward a bit (to the blue X) to solve this "problem".

    *I'm no FHCAG and neither is Michelle

    I'll post new pictures when fixed...and ironed

    Kilt apron

    Just saw the original style of these kilt aprons at the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders Museum at Stirling Castle last week. Might have to order one now.

    Nicely tapered, high rise, very good freedom of movement...hardly notice wearing it. And it doesn't even look that bad

    No, but I guess it can be treated with waterproof spray
