I've pretty much decided that I'll be getting another kilt this summer, and it will be in Ferguson Ancient. I currently have a Modern one pleated to the sett, and while I do like that pleating, was thinking about getting the ancient to the stripe. But which one?!



efer posted some pics of his Modern to the white stripe, posted here.
Barb posted a pic of a weathered version to the red stripe, posted here.

Pleating to the white stripe looks very sharp, but I wonder if it might be too striking and busy. On the other hand, the red might be too subtle and lead to a quasi-lawnchair effect. Of course, that'll probably be less concern on the ancient than what I'm seeing on the weathered.

I was wondering if anyone out here had any thoughts on what this particular tartan would look good in? Or even better, does anyone happen to have a Ferguson Ancient pleated to either stripe? I'm sure that's a bit too much to ask, but worth a shot
