Should have been a kilt jacket...

I believe that is a TRACHTEN jacket, from Germany.

I think there are plenty of reasons to wear it in a non traditional kilt outfit, just as you might wear it without lederhosen, with jeans for instance. But I'd be ready to discuss it...

I don't understand the fascination with all these very...umm..."distinctive-looking" jackets. There's already so much variation/ freedom of expression inherent in THCD, why not take any one of the seven or so evening THCD jacket styles and personalize it in your own choice of color, fabric, trim, etc?

That seems like it would be so much better than finding some "ebay special" that one "might be able to wear" with a kilt...
