Thanks for the warning about the velvet, Bugbear, I try not to be alone in a room with it and I keep a whip and a chair handy at all times.

OK, Here is what I (believe) I know about doublets:

1) Montrose= Double breasted, worn with a jabot and maybe belt, but no flaps ( Military collar )
2) Sherrifmuir= Buttons only at the top, flares out towards waist, worn with a waistcoat
3) Kenmore= Single breasted, worn with a jabot, has flaps ( and military collar )
4) Mystery doublet, probably BALMORAL , has flaps and lapels

The trick about the Balmoral is that it seems to be wearable either with lapels or quite possibly with the collar turned up. Similarly, it can take a belt or can be worn open, in which case it greatly resembles the regulation doublet. Smarter men than I can probably post a handy doublet recognition chart.

(In which case, we would have to include #5, the Regulation and possibly ( hisssss) #6, the much rented PC[ )

Who will provide us with said chart? And who can offer illustrated suggestions on other velvet confections?
