One more question about the Montrose doublet
I've got one more question about the Montrose doublet. I'm working on modifying a pattern to make it fully double breasted, but I'm not sure about the length. I had thought that the kilt was strapped on over the doublet, but I just saw a couple pictures that look like the doublet is worn over the kilt (there was a telltale bit of fabric peeking out from under the belt.) Which is correct? I haven't cut out the material yet (got 100% linen for the lining! Hooray!), so I can still alter the length.
