Image: Kilt pleats 002

Description: A pipe band in competition at the Skagit Valley (WA, USA) Highland Games. Their kilts are pleated in a style known as military pleating, a style used by many pipe bands. In military pleating, each pleat will be centered on a particular stripe and hence it is also called pleating to the stripe. It results in the horizontal bands which feature so prominently along the back of the kilt. See the discussion page for additional comments on kilt pleating as well as web references to other photos.
