As far as I'm concerned, if there isn't a detailed written description, it didn't happen.
I suspect that there isn't a singular Highland attire tradition, it is many traditions and view points from many regions of the Highlands and, to some degree, all of Scotland, all fighting or cooperating. The differing attitudes toward the jabot are an example of this regional difference in view point, or eye toward the traditional. This would be in addition to "personal flare."
Just trying to not cookie cutter and over generalize the nature of traditions in the context of cultures.

Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
