    I agree, that is a fine kilt and I bid you welcome to the small group of us here who wear the Cornish National. The acidly sharp yellow of the tartan is the very devil to colour co-ordinate or to match. I think it looks best with black or white shirts and hose, and it lends itself admirably to being worn as a dress tartan, such as with a Prince Charlie which, I see from your album, you do. I particularly like the pleating to the white stripe - mine is to the sett. Well done!

    Take care,
    Ham.

    [PS: My guess is that you had Cornovi make it for you - they delight in supplying four belt loops to their kilts!]
