Jacobite shirt

[ELY]

Back to the shirt question. If you want to wear a historic themed shirt and want it to be historically correct I would suggest either doing the research and making it yourself or find a reputable reenacting source and purchasing one. I have several linen and linen/cotton blend historically correct shirts from various eras, from 16th century to 19th century, that I wear, along with doublets, jerkins and waistcoats to compliment and enhance.

Thank you. It isn't that we want it historically correct, it is that the full PC/Jacket/waistcoat thing is way too hot and formal for our wedding. It is Scottish themed, but not medieval, if you know what I mean. We had looked at the jacobite shirt as an alternative because we saw it for sale all over the place, and thought it would be cooler for the temps we can have here. But we don't want to wear a costume.
I have been researching (jeeze I am learning more about kilts and tartans than I ever knew about wearing jeans!!!) and have a slight grasp of what we can do, but just needed opinions from real kilt wearers, not just manufacturers.
