1 kilt 10 looks: John Burgess

[tripleblessed]

I wanted to put an "aye" on almost every post, but it was not available except on the last two or three. Weird. A big AYE for the thread.
Also, very interesting to discover no alcohol in that fabulous photo that is the favorite of so many. An excellent underlining to Jock Scot's
point about not jumping to conclusions based on one photo. Sort of instant karma.

I notice Burgess looks a bit younger in the tartan doublet. Casting aside the idea that more tartan makes you look younger, I wonder if we might credit youthful exuberance for his flamboyant outfit. I'm not sure restraint is exactly the cause, but maybe we grow into a general tendency towards simplicity- just not wanting to bother with all of the extra steps when less is just fine.

I love seeing tartan doublets. I have noticed that one North American "designer" clothing line recently showed a large sett version of a Royal Stewart jacket- in a trendy shorter cut that is still too long for a kilt, but maybe adaptable. What say the rabble? For the dressier class of goat-ropings, dog fights, etc?

I'm not planning to attend any goat-ropings or dog fights this year, so - not for me.

Too tell the truth, they lost me at "slim fit", but I do love the large sett. Sorry for the threadjacking...
