Ties, Bowties or Cravats

[Piper]

In order for neckwear to be visible on me, it has to be a regular tie, with no waistcoat.

Although last July, when I piped at my nephew's wedding, I just left the wing collar open, and told folks there was a bow tie under there.
I've often considered a cravat though, but towards the latter part of the year it would only push the beard a bit more forward.

Not with the kilt I know,but just to show that the cravat of a style, probably from the time of Beau Brummell(1700's?) ,we call it a hunting stock, much like Puffer wears, is still worn in the UK today.There is usually a gold safety pin(stock pin), much like a kilt pin, to hold it together, placed in the stock in the V of the jacket.

By the way, this is what we mean by hunting,in the UK.

Jock, you know if they cut off the bottom of the jacket it would look a LOT like mine.

Hey maybe some day I will be in "style"

You know, Puffer, I'm a fan of a lot of the seventeen hundreds garb, as well as the late eighteen hundreds / early nineteen hundreds garb. I would love to wear, as a style, somewhat modernized versions of those clothing styles, the short jackets and knee pants etc, but it always seems to pull me off course with kilts.

I think it was the stock I was asking about back there.

I can't look at the pictures, Puffer. It's OK.

Anyway, I need something that goes well with my long eighteenth century style colonial hair.

LONG HAIR, Mine is also LONG. In most of my pictures, I wear it in a "pony tail.

Remember, I do Historical presentations & still have to function in the "modern world.

Yes, I usually put mine in a ponytail. I think I've read that was historically commen up until the short hair era.
