    Will probably post some more wedding pics tonight or tomorrow...just haven't gotten around to it yet. Look for the thread "Littroggy went a courtin'...Successfully."

    Sometimes I try too hard to be clever.

    They are made by Lady Chrystel:

    This is about as good a look as you can get, IMO. I especially like your jacket and the way you've paired the jacket with the waistcoat and kilt.

    I like the high collar and concave bottom edge of the waistcoat. Where do you get a waistcoat like that?

    For that matter where do you get a jacket (doublet?) like that?

    And does Lady Crystal's lace and silk cravat come with tying instructions?

    The tying of the cravat is quite the same as the jabot's.

    There have been several lively discussions around neck wear. Look for "jabot" in the subject using the search function. Stocks, cravats, and almost any kind of Beau-Brummell-scarf-like-thing seem viable.
