Spencer / Eton jacket into formal kilt jacket.

Paired with a tartan waistcoat or perhaps one in coloured scarlet, I think this style of jacket would look quite smart with Highland evening attire, Harold. I look forward to possibly seeing the steps of such an endeavour.

Best wishes,

It works fine. I did almost the same to the exact type of Eaton jacket last year. I used velvet black for the cuffs. It worked out great.



Good luck with your conversion,
Sara

I had not thought of velvet! I have some at home so that may be a good option to look into. I do what to reshape the bottom hem so that it curves upward at the side seams.

A peak at the back too?

[Harold Cannon]

Its nothing special just flat cut. I dont have a picture of the back.

Hope this photo turns out. I converted a tux spencer jacket for a celtic program at my church. The back is plain.
