I am not sure that I am familiar with the picture of Sean Connery that you mention. Is there any chance that you could show it?
Personally I do not think that the PC or the argyle jacket show off the jabot to best effect and yes, the Sheriffmuir and the Montrose jackets do.
As an aside, I do not think historical pictures of gentlemen in kilt attire are helpful in discussing traditional kilt attire. Interesting perhaps, but that is all.
