Addium; Weskit Lenght;
An original weskit was long enough to cover the waistband/ belt before it flared left and right. The inverted 'v' shape was designed to make acess to the breeches flap eaiser than fishing thru the long skirts of the earlier style of weskit.
Even a 21st Cent. weskit, with its short circular hemline, looks short and dumb, when worn with trowsers, if it does not cover the belt line.
Thus I would Ditto this advice to Kilt-o-philles: have yourt weskit long enough to cover the belt line, before the inverted 'v' starts, generally the last button of the weskit lies over the belt buckle.
Would some care to enlighten both the Membership and I?: were not the original belts worn to have the buckles turned to the back or one side when worn? This was my understanding, and how I wear mine. Fancy, whoop skip, belt buckle plates are a Victorian and later fashion trend.
Again, the thoughts of;
