Tartan vest/waistcoat opinions in gernral and it's level of formality

[Dileasgubas]

Thought I would put these ones out there. Tartan waistcoat and a PC.

The first was for a formal event. The second, for a Burns dinner. (I kind of like the second one where it looks like my sporran is taking a whiff of the haggis...) The kilt and vest are of matching tartan but the set sizes and wool weights differ.

I only wear wear this four-button vest when paired with a black tie and tend to favour it over the three-button vest that came with this PC. I had the PC made in blue with black facings to differentiate it from the masses a little but. I have also worn the vest under a black dinner jacket instead of a cummerbund. Anyway, I find it to be fairly versatile for formal wear.

Is that Macdonald of glengarry tartan?

I love the raccoon sporran.
