formal evening dress: vest or no?

I don't think we differ by much Sandy. Interesting picture there too, with a jabot and a three(?) buttoned waistcoat, I have never seen that before. You are quite right that for effective wearing of the jabot and the PC, almost perfect tailoring is required both with the kilt and the PC. Sadly that is a rare event.

As an aside, does anyone know when Scott Adie went out of business? I recently bought a brown leather day sporran made by them and it shows very little signs of wear.
