Wearing two different tartans together

[Panache]

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Periodically the subject of wearing two different tartans in the same outfit come up on our forum.

Some time back I found a beautiful Black Watch wool tartan blazer at a thrift store. It happened that last week I came across a perfect Lindsey tartan waist coat. Looking at the colors of both tartans I decided to give combining them a try.

It isn't a kilted outfit, but I could just as easily be wearing a solid color black kilt instead of trousers.



The question is does this work?

Cheers

Aye, of course it works. That's why our unit (Muskets of the Crown, Inc.) enjoys doing Jacobite, cause of the mixing and (un)matching of tartans.

The answer, Yes. At least it works for me. I can't comment though on what others might say.

I am no expert on colors, but looks ok to me.

Looking good! Just not a bow tie fan but that is me not you.

I think it looks great, Jamie!

Those two work together.

Speaking of bow ties...

Looking good! Just not a bow tie fan but that is me not you.

Nick and Phil,

Put Rob on the "The List"


He is obviously going to be one of the first ones against the wall when the bow tie revolution comes about!

But there will also be that forum filled with brave non-bow tie wearers who will stand up against the bow tie tyranny.

Very dapper, Jamie, but what is with the P@nts? I never expected to see such a thing on this site!
