If you are really planning a DAY jacket, David, don't go for the Prince Charlie look - that is essentially for Evening Dress wear, and also requires a waistcoat. In my 'umble opinion, it would look totally wrong or, at least, inappropriate if worn as a Day Jacket. If you are able to beg, borrow or steal an Argyll, or a Crail, as a model, then do it.

The Crail, by the way, is is a slightly less ornate version of the Argyll, particularly in respect of the turn-back cuffs on the sleeves.

Of course, one can wear what one wants, but I don't think you would want to look ridiculous, which I think you might if you followed the PC route.

Just my 0.617 Kroner-worth!

Take care,
Ham.

PS: Sorry, David. I may have been jumping to conclusions here. The Argyll style jacket is more commonly a Day jacket than one for evening wear. I have three, and all are in tweed. If you are considering evening wear, then yes, go for the PC style, but it will require a bow-tie not an ordinary one. H.
