Wearing two kilts at once.

[sydnie7]

Picking up on the topic of losing weight, is it possible to have a kilt altered to a smaller waistline, (not just cinching the straps) without ruining the kilt?

Yes, this can be done by removing entire pleats. It is fairly time-consuming (take off waistband) and pleats may need to be removed from both sides to keep the rear pattern centered. Worthwhile for tanks or rare tartans, maybe not worthwhile for less expensive versions. There have been other threads dedicated to the topic, with more info. I don't have the time right now to do that search but you can give it a try, search for "altering" maybe?
