If Kinloch Anderson's model--- and I must stress that I'm rather fond of Kinloch Anderson clothes--- goes out of shape enough to fill the void it still won't fit him. Its simply a coat in want of alteration. The jacket hangs and arms are long as if they were from a winter overcoat and not a semi-formal jacket. Kinloch Anderson does have enough tailors to fix that before a photo shoot.

Everything tied together looks very nice.
Its wonderfully presented but ill-fitting. Really a pity given their high international reputation.

I may be misunderstanding the point on the last jacket but it does not seem tailored for kilt wear at all. Not personally my taste.
The Dege & Skinner coat is clearly not for kilts. For Highland garb they represent Kinloch Anderson. I was just showing how even on a dummy they managed to present a jacket well fitting. Notice how even the shirt gently shows itself and how the jacket falls. I could have just as well chosen pictures from probably any tailor on or around Saville Row.
