Judge my kilt

[Crusoe]

Had the finishing touches added to my best man kilt outfit at the weekend, quick poll to see how offended the bride might be, I think it looks great.

Also, please don't tell me the jacket has been tailored for you.

Of course, all bespoke, not quite so bright in real life though I'll add purple hose and suitable brogues

If I'm standing straight it comes down to the first thumb knuckle with hands by your sides which is the traditional length.

Can always hire a dull one if you need it

Don't worry still here, though think I might have broken the forum.

The camera may have been set to vivid as it isn't quite so bright in person waist coat not adjusted so it will fit better and stitches still to come out of the kilt etc. sleeves will shorten a bit with wear and if I stand straight but need the width for my powerfully built arms and I can tie a much better knot though a bit out of practice.

Congratulations to the 13 so far with great taste.

I also have a Savile Row bespoke suit in yellow/gold with blue button hole stitches and a blue silk lining which I might take (the white suit might be a bit much, only allowed to wear that one on holiday).

Sounds less pretentious than room for my Pam 785 though might have to take it off the custom blue frog skin strap, even I have taste limits

Most of this lot are the reason there are so many monochrome cars on the road. I’ve had yellow, bright blue, green and lots of reds including a couple with red interiors.

What sort of shoes do you have in mind?

Toying with the idea of dying a pair of my Ludwig Reiters purple but the shoe thread might explode lol

Lovely tvr so called, would look great but think we have a Bentley for the day and I'll have my z4mc too probably.

what's the worst that could happen

Get on ok, she and the groom have both seen the outfit so spoiled the surprise a bit but no complaints.

On the day at least 90% loved it and lots of positive comments on all the kilts. Official pictures not out yet so hopefully my tie was straighter in some of them.

I made the wooden cantle for the one on the far left :P the rest is fox fur
