    Those hose were discussed on an earlier thread and it's my opinion that they were woven to match (more or less) a regimental stripe necktie, probably the Cameron Highlanders.

    BTW vintage Highland Dress photos usually show diced, tartan, and selfcoloured/plain/solid hose but hose in a number of patterns we don't see nowadays also are seen.













    This style appears in The Highlanders Of Scotland and is mentioned in a 1920s Highland Dress catalogue



    Here's a variant of it
