So my low-riding, "casually cut" Aberdeen District, with it's freakishly large 23" sett (but dozens of pleats) and pants-waist gap between kilt and waistcoat, would look good with a Prince Charlie? Not to belabor a point, but I just don't see it. ;) Interesting perspective, though! I appreciate the point of view!
