    The kilt does not look too much like a Royal Stewart, but that is what they wore.

    Good luck with your project.

    The 42nd were were given permission to wear the Royal Stewart in 1865; before then they wore the Music Tartan which is what is shown in the image linked. More here - 42nd Band Tartan.

    The style is older that the later doublet style with tashes (Inverness Skirts/Flaps), none survive so far as I know and I’ve never seen a picture of the back. In style it likes more like a Napoleonic era cavalry doublet.
