Burns Night attire with jabot



Last night was the Rockford Burns Supper, one of the oldest in the US. I wore my formal attire with a new jabot made by Lady Chrystel. My is customized a bit, slightly shorter than her standard length.

As for you McMurdo...


That good gentleman Glen
Is one I gladly call friend
But dressing so much better
Than a certain plumed trendsetter
May result in an unfortunate end !




Cheers
