    New kilt, new jacket, both vintage.

    I recently recieved a gift of a vintage (1967) kilt in Campbell Dress, with matching argyle hose. Here's a few shots.

    Both outfits look great! What a gift!

    I have to admit I'm just a bit green here.

    Wear it well CJ.

    Yes indeed, looks great.

    We all could get a bit green - maybe 'cos of the colour of the kilt
    I like the breeze between my knees

    I hate to be the one to burst the bubble, but that tartan is the Dress Gordon.

    It's very close, but Dress Gordon only has yellow stripes on the green. Dress Campbell has alternating yellow and white stripes on the green. If you look closely, every other stripe on green is white. I hope this descripton makes sense.
