Belt or no belt?

[Bryan]

The kilt to me just looks sort of...naked...without a belt. I'm the same about blue jeans or any kind of pant. If you are tucking in your shirt, wear a belt.

Back on the issue of belt with a waist coat, if you look at this painting by MacLeay, the Gent on the right happens to show the white waist coat worn under the belt. Very interesting.

and the gent on the left, wears the belt on the outside of his jacket?

Over the jacket or doublet is not quite so odd. We still see that today with some of the more formal Scottish dress (Montrose doublet) and the pipers will wear them that way.http://kiltstore.net/sr_gaeli_montro...ar:id=vJUWHn2y



My visualization of the belt "over" a waist coat was not that flattering originally but this doesn't look too bad actually...just different

My opinion also.
