A tab collar is exactly that: a stand-up collar with slits into which you place a white tab that leaves a little white square.

This is probably way too much information, but you did ask!
And, BTW, I agree that an argyle style would look excellent with a tab or ful collar. I wear a full collar when called upon to do so, in either gray or black, and it always looks sharp with a kilt.
