Mini Kilt

Low Waist


Our mini kilt is designed to be worn at "low waist" (where you wear your jeans). This is where the top of your kilt will sit. 

 

Make sure to use a good sewing tape measure. If you don't have a sewing tape measure, you can use a leather belt to measure. Wrap it around you, mark it and then lay it flat on a metal tape measure to get the measurement.

 

Just relax and stand "at ease". When measuring, the tape measure should be snug – as snug as you will be wearing the kilt. Use that measurement for the waist.

 



Hips

This measurement is taken around the very widest part of your rear end. This measurement should be taken a bit loosely.

 



Thighs

Standing with feet about 8" to 10" apart, measure around the widest area of your thighs. Measure both thighs together, not individually.  

 



Length


This is measured down the side of your body from the top of where the kilt will sit (i.e. top of your jeans) straight down to about 3" above the knee. 15" is an average length for a 5' 4" woman, wearing the kilt at her low waist). Any measurement shorter than this may be a bit "revealing" when you bend at the waist! As a reference point, here are some heights and mini kilt lengths:

 

If you're 4' 8" to 5' 2", the length will be about 14" to 15.5.
If you're 5' 3" to 5' 6", the length will be about 15" to 16.5".
If you're 5' 7" to 5' 9", the length will be about 16" to 17".
If you're 5' 10"; to 6', the length will be about 17" to 18.5".
