    Put a kilt under it and a doublet over it and you're ready for the Tartan Ball! Very nice work. You should be very proud of it.

    Hi, David – very nice indeed. It goes well with the shirt and trousers, but ought to go even better with the kilt.
    And could we see what the back looks like?
    Regards,

    Oh, but my good sir, it very much IS kilt kit. If you wore it under a formal jacket or doublet with the kilt made of the same material, you would have a most smashing ensemble. Use the search function, search the threads for bias cut waistcoat, and you will see an entire range of possibilities. You have done very, very well, sir! Congratulations!
