Burns Night attire with jabot

Last night was the Rockford Burns Supper, one of the oldest in the US. I wore my formal attire with a new jabot made by Lady Chrystel. My is customized a bit, slightly shorter than her standard length.

That looks great on you, Greg. I like the lace.

Yes, I used a regular pants belt for the dirk. The belt wasn't used to hold up this kilt and it wasn't visible. It worked really well, too!
And Glen, I agree. I think there'll be a jabot renaissance in Highland attire soon...

As for you McMurdo...
That good gentleman Glen
Is one I gladly call friend
But dressing so much better
Than a certain plumed trendsetter
May result in an unfortunate end !

Now, now, Jamie, jealousy does not become the refined gentleman. These situations should be seen as a challenge to better oneself.
