Its now the convention that they are formal evening wear worn with diced or tartan hose but that was not necessarily the Victorian/Edwardian way.
Anybody got any views on whether I should wear buckle brogues with pink hose with a hodden grey kilt or should I lash out on a decent pair of London/Toronto Scottish diced hose?
PS I usually wear 1000 mile diced golf socks when I wear them with trews.

He keeps his side arms awful,
And he leaves them all about,
Until up comes the Regiment and kicks the 'Eathen out.
