My question is this: Can oqne don a black Argyll jacket with mostly brown color in kilt and accessories? I understand that the "matchy" issue is predominately this side of the pond but still curious in traditional kilting.
As a Burns night celebration is usually not really a terribly formal event for most, ( the word “supper” gives a good guide that the event is not to be formal. Smart maybe, but no need for formal, black tie, attire.)then I see no reason not to wear the rather "discreet" weathered tartan with a black argyll. Personally, I think more flamboyant tartan hues for the rather more important formal events would still be, for most, a better choice though.
