2. Apron Adjustment

Designed for larger size changes, this service focuses on extending the kilt’s aprons (the overlapping front panels) to provide additional room at the waist. The process includes:

Unpicking parts of the kilt to access and extend the aprons on both sides.

Extending the waistline using fabric already present within the kilt.

Adding stabilizers and extra lining to maintain the kilt’s structure.

Pressing the entire kilt for a polished, professional finish.

This adjustment is perfect for moderate-to-large size changes while keeping the kilt’s overall look intact.

Service Cost: £180

3. Full Waist Adjustment with Pleat Repositioning

For significant size changes, this service involves repositioning not only the aprons but the entire kilt’s pleats. This highly intricate and time-consuming process includes:

Unpicking the entire kilt, pleat by pleat.

Reseating and resewing each pleat to match the new size, ensuring the pattern remains consistent and repeatable.

Adjusting stabilizers and adding additional lining where necessary.

Pressing the finished kilt to achieve a flawless appearance.

This method is ideal for customers requiring substantial changes to their kilt’s waist while maintaining its craftsmanship and elegance.
