This is a great example of variety in styles and ways to wear outfits. I feel my feeble attempt to put together "my look" has promise when I compare with these photos. Thanks again for sharing your cache of pics.

It's interesting to me that several of the jackets pictured are quite long and look they would cover the pleats. I wonder what's going there? A style that has gone out of fashion in favour of pleat freedom of movement? Hand-me-down that's too big? More of an overcoat meant for warmth? Something else?

Good question! 
To hazard (not even a guess, but a "wonder") I notice that the ones with tashes seem shorter and the longer ones seem tweedish. Wearing what you've got?

Obviously posed/staged/portrait pictures, but what photos from that era weren't.

Other than the kilt and hose (probably) that would be my guess.
Interesting photos. Thanks for posting them OCR.

The second gentleman's jacket and a couple others look like the old sack coat. Just my observation and looking at a few sack jackets out on the net.

I'm not sure those guys qualify as old, except in the historical sense, LOL. They all appear younger than me. I'm 56, and that isn't old. Or, is it?
Cheers, Mark
