Sheriffmuir doublet and vest in tartan

[Highland Logan]

That’s great. But I do wonder where you are going to wear it? I think we have discussed the over egging of attire for minor formal events, so how many white tie events are you going to? You have also discovered that ultra formal events do not require such attire and I have to ask, is the expense really worth it? Only you can answer that, as its your cash!

I think part of the issue here is that you assume a evening event somewhere else follows the same style, and in many cases format of the ones you have and continue to attend.

I suggest that folks understand the subtleties, styles and correct (as much as that can be a thing) options for Highland dress, and then dress for the event they are attending.

We all here enjoy and celebrate the national dress of Scotland, so lets not start telling people how the events that they aren't attending are over dressed, and encourage and revel in the celebration of it.
