For my Evening Dress outfits I have patterned hose for two of my kilts:
-Argyll hose to match my Drummond of Perth (muted) kilt. With the more modern seal Evening sporran it makes for a standard modern traditional (1920-present) outfit.
-diced castellated hose to match my Isle of Skye kilt. With the Edwardian goat sporran it makes for a c1910 style outfit.
I wouldn't have considered getting the IoS hose, but they came up fairly inexpensively used, and in my hard-to-find size.
I should point out that to match modern non-Highland Black Tie etiquette I should be wearing a shirt with ordinary collar.
