    I'd be interested in seeing pics of trews with a fly plaid, if that's been done.

    I would suggest the first link as Matt Newsome at the Scottish Tartan Museum is very knowledgeable and will be able to help you throughout the entire process.

    If I was not wearing a kilt, then I wouldn't wear the fly plaid with a tux. I would go for the tartan cummerbund and bow tie because I think that looks really sharp.
