The short answer is, "It all depends."
The long answer is:
Where will you be going kilted, and for what purpose? If it's to the grocery store for some bananas and Cheerios, then put on a t-shirt, the kilt, regular socks and tennis shoes and go. If it's to a Games and you really want to look "the business", then a white button-down shirt by itself or with a vest will look just fine. I'd suggest a polo-type shirt with a little red in it, to pick up the red stripes in the tartan. You can rarely go wrong with a baby blue Oxford shirt, too.
In other words, the kilt can be like a pair of khakis, in that your torso can be covered in several different ways and still look presentable.
