    I Have not seen the Duke Rothesay wear that waistcoat very often with his day attire and certainly not recently. I wonder why?

    You make my point for me OCR, that the tartan waistcoat worn with day kilt attire are "the province" of the very occasional "Clan Chief and pop stars" and I think The Duke would qualify too, don't you?

    I know many in North America may find this hard to stomach, but over here in Scotland, particularly in the Highlands of Scotland conservative dressing is the preferred and most common way of thinking for kilted gentlemen during the day, even these days. To put it another way, there is a point with our kilt attire, where we would just not pass. History may point otherwise, the future may go another way, but the recent past and the present say different, for the majority of kilt daywear in Scotland.
