Awesome! I dream of 16 oz. worsted wool, nightly. I don't have anything in 16 oz. at this point. I dig that driver cap too! I'm eagerly anticipating my Irish Tweed Driver cap. It should be here tomorrow or Monday at the latest. I wear a solid coloured driver most every day. Where did you get that one? I've seen a couple of sites that offer tartan drivers, but haven't seen any one recommended.
Here is the outfit I was thinking of for Saturday night's Scottish Country Dance. I was told that the gentlemen mainly wore peasant or Jacobite shirts.
I dug out this renaissance faire shirt the Flame-Haired Celtic Amazon Goddess made me (along with a rather wonderful gold noble's costume...but that's another story). To anyone who does Scottish Country Dancing is this appropriate?.
Yes I'd say it was very appropriate. I have certainly seen several dancers with similar styles at dances here in the UK.
I did wonder about the shirt sleeves. I get very hot doing SCD and, if I can, I wear short sleeves. I had another look at the splendid photo and realised that those sleeves are very loose. Probably very airy and comfortable. I think they'll do just fine.
