I'm attending a ball this weekend intended as a reenactment of an event that the third class passengers aboard the titanic might have attended.

The idea is to dress as a 3rd class passenger wearing the best outfit they would have had for a formal evening event.

I'm hoping to wear a kilt but I don't have a prince charlie jacket and can't really afford one.

I been told that a jacoshirt shirt would be hard to justify since someone who owned a kilt would likely also have some type of jacket to go with it.

I own a tail coat, a tuxedo/dinner jacket, and some modern formal vests and bow ties. But I'm not sure whether they would work with a kilt.

I"m looking for suggestions on clothing that could be easily obtained in the US (Boston) that would allow me a create a historically accurate outfit.

Thanks in advance.
