I was once told by someone that If a person says "you look good"... then you are ... but if they say... "I like your socks" (or shirt or other choice other than your kilt)... then that is the dominant thing they notice and not YOU... Get the idea?
Yes, agreed, not white.

I like the idea of taking the colours from the thin stripes in the kilt and bringing them out- you don't have to use the dominant colour of the kilt

I have green (bottle- fairly standard) hose but actually the colour is not present at all in my kilt- even though it gives the impression that it is. This is because it complements- not matches - the kilt. (not very adventurous, but you see how you could take this further...)



It looks like it matches- but if you check the flashes against the hose, you'll see the contrast.

Anyway, I'm not trying to pass off anything I say as the rule, merely an observation/suggestion.

Good luck!
