    Rocky is pleating my new Gordon modern traditional to stripe. It was his suggestion when I talked with him on the phone to place my order. He said, simply, that the modern Gordon really looks great done that way, so I took his advice. He promised that I would have it before June 10th. so it's getting close. Only a few more weeks to jones.

    Rocky is dead on with this one (no surprise, there!). It does look great. I really like the effect of the mainly yellow back and the very striking pattern in front... It is a neat contrast....

    stripe

    As you can see, pleating to sett or stripe is simply a matter of taste. My Drummond kilt is pleated to sett. It's all really about what you like. Forget the phony rules.

    To my eye pleating to the stripe is a more "formal" look than pleating to the sett. It's just a matter of personal tastes.
