A kilt is made up of several key parts that give it its structure and function. The front consists of two flat sections called aprons, which overlap when worn. The back of the kilt is made up of pleats, which allow for movement and create the traditional look. Kilts are typically secured at the waist using straps and buckles, though some styles use snaps or other fastenings. Most kilts also include belt loops for wearing a kilt belt.
