A very special Doublet

[Downunder Kilt]

Absolutely breathtaking Robert and you wear it as an gentleman should. The buttons alone are something to behold. I gather the presentation of it was made by Lady Chrystel, which makes you a very lucky man.
Congratulations to the both of you on your anniversary

Robert, that's is a wonderful look!! The jacket is very nice. Ah, we should all be as photogenic as you!

As someone who is on a similar quest to produce a custom, one of a kind doublet made just for me, you thread title caught my attention. Yours is absolutely splendid! Lady Chrystel's garments are a work of art and you are a very lucky man to be married to her. I'm currently about 3-4 hours work away from finishing my first kilt (which I made for a good friend of mine) and need to finish stitching in the lining and sewing the buttonholes on a tartan waistcoat. When those two projects are done, I'll be starting work on my velvet doublet!

As for your photos....I always love seeing them so...your house is lovely. It reminds me of a museum. Keep the pics coming!!

Simply amazing!

I continue to be dumbfounded by your good wife's skill with cloth of all sorts.
The doublet is a thing of beauty, and fits exactly your description- both French and Scottish.

I was lusting after one of your waistcoats (which MAY be the one you're wearing with the MacKinnon tartan and plaid), now I've got to add yet another item of your wardrobe to my "green list":mrgreen:

Contratulations also on your 11th anniversary. Many happy and healthy years to you both.

BTW: My wife and I just celebrated our 11th as well.
