I couldn't hate it more.

Anyway, on the actual topic, while I think one could wear a jabot with a closed doublet to a black tie affair, it would be somewhat overdressing. The doublet and jabot is white tie attire.

Something I do like (though I can't claim to have worn it) is the cravat with a doublet. And I don't mean the big squishy tie thing that seems so popular among certain UK highland wear suppliers, more like a riding stock.

It does strike me as slightly Regency, but then again, a jabot strikes me as more than slightly Georgian.
