    Ahhhhhhhhh! :butt::buttkick:

    He's joking. Never, never, never, never, never, never, never wear a jabot over a white shirt! Did I say don't do it? Well, don't ever do it. You'll look like Sean Connnery did in the famous photo that is something of a study in what NOT to wear.

    Only wear a jabot with a jacket that mounts all the way to the chin and covers the chest, like a Montrose doublet.

    With a regulation doublet, you wear a white waist coat and a bow tie!

    There, I think I'll be OK now. The nurse brought my meds.

    Well, I disagree with you, old chap. I see nothinh wrong with wearing a jabot with a white shirt. I certainly wouldn't wear one without a waistcoat, but I can assure you that a jabot can be worn--and frequently is-- with open doublets to excellent effect. Sorry.
