    orange Prince Charlie on Ebay

    Yowza

    http://www.ebay.com/itm/Orange-Princ...item20d3a83215

    Or is it intended to be saffron??

    In any case, it might be a crucial ingredient if someone was trying to put together the most garish kit possible... I'm thinking a purple kilt to go with it?

    So the monstrosity is back again, huh?

    No surprise that there weren't any takers last time. It really is bad.

    Sorry! I forgot about that! Or missed it; how could one forget such a thing?

    I really wish someone would pose wearing that along with the most clashing kilt possible, so I could add that photo to my little collection of garish outfits.

    It IS my size, but there's no way on this Earth that I'm dropping $340US to pick it up Even though it would indeed clash delightfully/horrifically with the R'lyeh sett.

    It would look good with my Dutch Friendship Tartan tank. But not my size--haven't been a 44 in 15 years and more like 45 years since I was even close to a regular.

    I agree -- "yuck color" -- but any University of Tennessee kiltie (if there are any) should love it. I've never seen so much orange (even house roofs) until moving to Tennessee!

    I like it. I was thinking it would tie in nicely with a DFT too. In fact I think it's ace. If it was a bit bigger and a bit longer and half the money, I'd probably buy it... I'd even wear it.

    Not sure about any of the other examples of garishness on show here though. Even I have a limit

    It's a secondary colour triad. That's a perfect match in my opinion.

    (4 years of art school and I use my degree to argue colours on the internet. Sorry mom & dad.)

    That's as may be, but the risk with dressing in triad colours (especially very saturated tones) is that you either look like a national flag, clown, or a superhero/villain.

    While the idea of a kilted Joker may be interesting to some, it's not something I'd prefer to not have my wardrobe
