In fact that applies to a national attire from wherever it hails from, if we choose to wear it..
This is why I wanted to ask about wedding ties. I first heard about the grey/silver norm on this forum but I wasn't sure of its provenance.

Jock, can you clarify the THCD position (if any) on grey/silver neckties for weddings? Is this one of those "incorrect adaptations" from non-kilt wear or does it apply to Highland attire?
