BTW, I'm surprised that nobody has chimed in with this....that the Prince Charlie is supposed to be the equivalent of Black Tie, but a doublet, such as the Sherriffmuir or Montrose, with Jabot and cuffs is supposed to be the equivalent of white tie.
In my 52 years I have never been to a white tie event, though I've played in a dance band where we wore dinner jackets while we played for dinner (white jackets) and changed to tuxedos for after-dinner dancing. That's not really the same thing at all, though.
I don't know about you, but I'm a humble working jock and white tie events just kind of aren't on my social calendar. So I won't be buying a doublet any time soon.
