    From my childhood I have always been tought that a 3 button waistcoat is more formal than a 5 button waistcoat. So to me it is just a matter of how formal the party I am going to is.

    That is apparently some murky territory:

    Lovely tartan waistcoat, I too own a few-yet they are the three button version. The four is quite elegant. Well done!
