Party attire...

[Jordan]

Consider asking the host what he will be wearing. If he will be kilted, as I thought the OP suggested, then ask him and match that level of attire if you are concerned.

If you do just hope he doesn't have the "this is my kilt stuff and I will wear all of it!" mindset that is popular over here

Browsing over many of the different threads have been helpful to many of us as members... Now for a bit of assistance myself... I am attending a party that the better halfs boss (Doctor) is putting on, at a fairly posh estate. The dress code is dress casual, however, the Doctor is a Campbell, and will be wearing his scottish attire for the event. He is fairly new to the Kilt scene and I would rather make a grand impression upon everyone, to include the proper dress and details to further impress upon him that, being Scottish or Celt and wearing a Kilt can be for any event. Upon that I shall impose my questions or rather describe the outfit that I have chosen and see if any of the readers would change any of the options. A Blackwatch Kilt, dark green tweed jacket and waistcoat, light green shirt with black tie, dark green kilt hose with black flashes, ghillies, spats, sgian dubh, and a semi dress sporran. I also have a deep red waistcoat, red diced hose, red flashes, and the assortment of white shirts, traditional plaid, brooches, ect. Being the Wife's boss, and the Host, I don't want to out do him in dress, as this is not a black or white tie formal. I am however wearing my dark green rosette and brass kilt pin to close the deal. What... if any would you as a reader change or add ?

that outfit seems a bit dark to me(can we see a pic?) I would go with your waistcoat shirt no tie sporran and your red flashes. That should look smart but still not over dressed. Of course if everyone else will be in a polo shirt then you would want to be too.
