A gent's highland wedding outfit

[Abax]

For a day-time wedding: kilt (usually made from eight yards of tartan wool) with kilt pin, tweed Argyll (or similar Crail or Braemar) jacket with antler buttons and matching five-button waistcoat or kilt belt in brown or black leather (but don’t wear a belt with a waistcoat), brown or black leather sporran and brogues, kilt hose and garter flashes to complement (or at least not clash with) the colours in the kilt and jacket (avoid hire-shop white hose unless you are a piper!), turn-down collar shirt (usually white) and tie (not tartan and often silver or a solid colour).

My comment has nothing to with content, just form. Something worth saying in parentheses is usually worth putting right there in the main text. A lot of parenthetical interjection makes text choppy and hard to read. For example, I'd re-write the quoted passage above this way:

For a day-time wedding, a kilt made from eight yards of wool tartan is worn. It is usually accompanied by a white turn-down collar shirt, a self-coloured tie, a tweed jacket with antler buttons in the Argyll, Crail or Bramer style, and a matching five-button waistcoat. Black or brown leather accessories include a kilt belt in place of the waistcoat, a sporran and brogues. Kilt hose with garter flashes that do not clash with the colours in the kilt and jacket are worn, avoiding the white hose normally used by pipers.
