I am strongly considering becoming one of the character dancers at Fezziwig's for this year's San Francisco Dickens Fair. For those of you who don't know, San Francisco has a long running Dickens Fair every Christmas season, and one of the most visible parts of it is the period dance hall, aka Fezziwig's. Period waltzes, mazurkas, and polkas are open to the "audience", but there is a constant stable of period characters participating. Dress seems to run the gamut from Victorian Sunday Best to White Tie, this being one of the few occasions to dress in one's period finery. The sumptuary accuracy is more on the period rather than the setting.

Should I make it into the troupe, I would like to be in kilt. There is precedent, however nearly all the clothing guidelines (aka rules) refer to Saxon garb. Of course, all final outfits are cleared by the Fair officials, however I thought I would do my due diligence and pick the brains of our enlightened rabble. I've read through all the threads I found referring specifically to the Victorian period, and I've got some ideas of what to wear. There are some holes in this theory that I would like filled, however, so I will lay out my ideas and ask you fine gents for your opinions.

Kilt: 4-5 yard box-pleated. Tartan pattern: clan variant. I'm a Baxter, so I get to wear MacMillan tartan.
Shoes: Buckle Mary Janes seems to be the norm. Although it seems thin ghillies or buckle shoes could possibly work?
Hose: Diced or Argyle. I like the look of castellated hose.
Garter ties: I see mostly red garters when I look at Highlanders of Scotland. Is there another color that would be period accurate?
Sgian Dhu: Again, HoS makes it look optional. But should I choose to wear it, just a plain wood handle is best.
Shirt: White, marcella front, detachable collar like the Saxons of the period.
Jacket/vest: Here's where I run into some trouble. HoS seems to go from extreme military formal suddenly to casual daywear. No PCs, no Argyle with silver buttons; mostly doublets and tweed jackets. Essentially, no evening wear. As I am just getting into Traditional Highland wear, it might be nice to have the option of Argyle and black vest, or PC before splurging for that glorious 1822 Commemorative Jacket I saw on one of our linked vendors. I am also very much considering the Montrose Doublet for eventual 21st century use, but that doesn't seem period. Since the jacket choice will greatly influence the formality of accessories, much rides on this choice.
Sporran: Goat hair or horse hair seems the only choice.
Fly Plaid: Definitely not necessary, however depending on the formality of the coat, it might be fun to have.
Headwear: bareheaded while dancing, a standard modern Balmoral (sans dicing) could fit the bill when venturing onto the streets of London. A burgundy Balmoral has caught my eye; would that be an improper color?
Dirk: Again, not necessary, but it might be a nice accessory should I want more "bling".

Esteemed Rabble, any help would be appreciated.
