Vest al la HRH Prince Charles

**fortcollinsjerry** · 26th December 10, 03:10 PM

I've noticed several photo's of HRH wearing his kilt and he always wears a vest that is straight across the front. All of mine have that little peak opening. Anyone know who might sell those kind of Vests?

I believe his clothes are all bespoke. Also, I'm sure you could find a tailor to duplicate the style HRH wears.... cost would be the issue.

I really like the clothes HRH wears. Very slick and stylish.

There were a few on uniformalwarehouse.com last time I looked, but that was a while ago. It's certainly not of the same quality as HRH wears, but the one I bought was pretty fair and a great buy for the price. I got mine in black so it could work with any jacket I have, and it's good by itself. I wouldn't say it's black tie wear, but it mainly lets me step up a notch from "business casual."

Lots of these 19th C. style vests have the straight bottom, and lapels (though only a handful are wool or "tweedy"):

I was going to mention the lapels on the vest. Not a common sight.

She makes some superb bespoke vests. I'm sure she'd be able to do whatever you wanted.

We can have ours made that way on special request. When I had my sheriffmuir made, I requested the waistcoat be straight cut.

I keep going back to that picture. Looking at the jacket it doesn't seem to fall under Argyll, Bramar, or Crail. There aren't any shoulder ropes. I really like the way that vest collar falls as well.

I'd purchased a Crail jacket sometime back and found that the waistcoat was a bit long, so I took it to a local seamstress and had it flattened out...
