Measuring for a kilt can seem like a daunting task, but with the right guidance, it can be done easily and accurately. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to measure for a kilt:
- Determine the Type of Kilt
First, decide on the type of kilt you want to wear. Do you want a traditional kilt, or do you prefer a contemporary design? The type of kilt you choose will affect how you take your measurements.
- Measure Your Waist
The waist measurement is the most important measurement when it comes to a kilt. Use a measuring tape to measure around your waist at your belly button. Make sure the tape is snug but not too tight. Take note of the measurement in inches.
- Measure Your Hips
Next, measure your hips. Stand with your feet together and measure around the fullest part of your hips. Take note of the measurement in inches.
- Determine the Kilt Length
To determine the length of your kilt, measure from your waist to the middle of your knee. Take note of the measurement in inches.
- Choose the Right Size
Once you have your measurements, compare them to the sizing chart provided by the kilt manufacturer. Choose the size that corresponds to your measurements. If your measurements fall between sizes, it’s best to go for the larger size and then adjust it if necessary.
- Consider Customization Options
If you want your kilt to be customized, such as having a different length or adding a unique design or kilt pin, be sure to discuss this with the kilt maker before placing your order.
By following these steps, you can be sure that your kilt will fit perfectly and look great on your special day.
