Right now I have a grad banquet coming up and I plan on wearing my kilt.I was planning on wearing a normal white button down with my royal stewart(closes I could find to the Bruce clan) sports kilt.

I'm not planning on wearing a tie so do you think this will look alright?
Why no tie???

Hello there, TweedertheScot... I'm still curious Why no tie??? A kilt and shirt with no jacket and tie is fine but is not "semi-formal" attire. To me what you are proposing is like wearing sneakers with a good suit. Believe me, I'm not blind to what younger folks are wearing these days and I'm also not one who wears ties on a regular basis. I don't even like ties particularly... but sometimes they add the "spit and polish" to an outfit that tells people you didn't just climb off of a turnip truck. Sorry..., unless I'm missing something here, I think you should wear a tie. A graduation dinner is one of those times... IMHO.
