I have 2 names for you- ALBANNACH TARTAN and USA KILTS!! The Isle of Skye is nice... but man, the Albannach is kicka$$!!

I usually wear it with a pair of purple Lewis Rich kilt hose from the Scottish Tartans Museum.

Just reread where you said fabric wasn't an issue. This is a Warrior tartan in polyviscose from USA Kilts. Lots of Purple with white accent. There's also some black in the tartan but its the purple that leaps out.

This is a casual model. I'd for sure suggest you spring for the semi-trad for a family wedding.

Very nice! I've had my eye on that tartan for a while. And I will second the semitrad suggestion, for sure.
