I agree with CajunScot that the kilts thought of traditional today, the 8yd knife pleated, is based on the kilts worn in the military post Proscription.
Well now, I didn't say that exactly. Kilts worn by the Highland regiments during and after Proscription would be closer to Matt's box-pleated kilts than an 8-yd. knife pleat.

My point was that the Highland regiments were one of the ways that traditional Highland dress was saved after the Proscription Act.
