Montrose Doublet without Jabot

I agree. The doublet really needs the Jabot and cuffs to really pull the whole look together.

Well McMurdo! You look stunning! I agree the jabot and cuffs for me seem to be mandatory. If you need a halfway stopping point to Disney your welcome to stop off at my homestead!

I think a Montrose needs the jabot and cuffs. You could probably get away without them when wearing a Kenmore doublet.

I'm intrigued; I'm familiar with the Montrose, Sherrifmuir & regulation styles, but not the Kenmore - could someone run a pic of it?

I believe that it's similar to the Montrose, but single-breasted. See
Kinloch Anderson's Web site for some nice examples.

Gentlemen, thanks for the link & the photo!

On " Monarch of the Glen" one of the regulars often wore the Montrose without the Jabot & Cuffs in the later seasons, it always looked a little off to me.

I wear a motrose w/o the jabot for the Fire Dept. honor guard.
I wear a tux shirt w/o the bowtie. the reason being is the honor guard uniform has the same collar as the motrose and it looks a little more uniform with them.
one of these days I'll post a pic

ymmv
