Okay who wrote the "rules"? And when? Was it when one was covered from head to toe in mis-matched tartans? A definate no-no today. Tastes change or are we supposed to all dress up in Jacobite shirts and swordsman jacket, I'm thinking that they predate PC's and Argyles, brush off sheep dust and you you're formal. 21st Century Kilts is a well respected kilt maker, they seem to buck the "rules", just seem to make things up. Have you seen the Hellraiser/Matrix full length kilt? Put that with a PC and bowtie.
