A Night At The Opera

[BCAC]

I think they would mention it, but agreed it is bad form to make such a comment. Rude, even.

I stated in my previous post that nothing looks worse than a big expanse of white shirt between the waistcoat and the kilt. I stand by this statement. This is in fact true whatever is being worn on the bottom half of your body. The fact that it is hired gear is neither here nor there. In fact, if it was hired gear I would never taken it out of the shop. It is not only possible to fill this gap, but it is necessary. If, whatever I tried, there was always this big expanse of white shirt between my waistcoat and what I had on the bottom of my body (kilt or trousers), and it wasn't hired gear, then I would leave the waistcoat off.

It is, in effect, my opinion, but I believe that I am not alone in having this same opinion. Of course, if I saw someone whom I considered to have made a "faux pas" when dressing for the evening, I would not say anything to him about that at all.

I'm only stating here what I would do and my way of looking at these things. This great expanse of white shirt between waistcoat and kilt is not normal, can easily be corrected and does not look good. You, of course, are at liberty to do as you wish (and you don't need my permission to be able to do so).
