Representing the Kilt?

[CMcG]

Sounds exciting. Go with your gut; If it ere me in your situation, I'd be looking for advice from you anyway

Frankly CMcG, I think you're style and judgement goes far beyond mine. I have yet to see you not well put together. You even made a free Utilikilt look sharp. Any combo you come up with that isn't too formal will be fine as long as it isn't uncomfortable in Hong Kong weather.

Gentlemen, you flatter me

Whidbey78, I was just looking at the average temperatures and humidity for Hong Kong in the Fall and Winter. Thankfully, it seems a bit more temperate from December to March. Wearing a jacket in high heat and humidity would definitely have been a drag

As for formality, I don't want to be over dressed but I still think it represents better to be looking smart. That probably means my dress Argyll and a tie, both of which could be removed if the event ends up being more casual. I've also found a tweed jacket that is just the right length to work with a kilt or with p@nts, so I might bring that with me as well...

Since it specifies "for cultural activities", I'd opt for the traditional look.

I agree that traditional-ish is the way to go... but if I'm going to wear my national tartan, it will have to be my PV (rather than wool) that I mentioned earlier in this thread. I got in touch with MacHummel last night to see about altering that kilt to fit better and he has agreed to do so at a very reasonable rate.
