Yes I know wearing a cummerbund with a kilt isn't in line with traditional Highland Dress, but my motive was to match in with the wedding as well as I could while kilted.
I am not trying to be obtuse, or contentious, I am just trying to understand, but why are you trying to "...match in with the wedding..."? You are already standing out from the crowd, how is a cummerbund, or any other form of "camouflage", going to tone down your appearance? Why should you even want to match any one? None of the wedding guests will want to "match" you, surely? They have their own wedding attire that is probably an entirely different style altogether.

I fully accept that what we wear is entirely a choice that we all have and I am not for one second criticising what you are wearing.
