Morning Suit Equivalent

[davidlpope]

Either a Montrose Doublet with jabot (what I would choose) or a Prince Charlie jacket with a white bow tie and three-button waistcoat.

I really don't believe this is correct. A Morning Coat is just that, a Morning Coat. It is usually worn for weddings. It is not formal white-tie evening attire, one equivalent of which is the Montrose Doublet with jabot. Also, although I guess it's possible to wear a Prince Charlie jacket with a white bow tie and three-button waistcoat, the Prince Charlie is really not a white-tie jacket, either. For white-tie occasions, one would be better off with a Montrose, Sheriffmuir, Kenmore, or Regulation Doublet. Again, though, none of these options would be the equivalent to a Morning Coat.

Perhaps the question here should be: What is appropriate kilted attire for a morning wedding? FWIW, the Highlanders on the forum have made it clear that THCD for this event would be a tweed jacket/waistcoat combination in either a traditional tweed or the more modern charcoal color, with the appropriate hose and a day sporran.

Cordially,

David
