This was a black tie event and the majority of the attendees were Scottish expats or visitors.
Colin, just out of curiosity, which ones in this photo are native Scots? I ask because I see a number of items being worn that would be considered non-traditional (or traditional, but not worn in the manner that we are often told is 'proper'). For example, the gentleman with the long hair is wearing what appears to be a more historical style coatee with a 'skinny tie'. Or several gentlemen wearing black shirts, and kilts that cover their knees.

I'm not trying to be overly critical of their dress, but was just wondering if there was a clear difference between how the native Scots were wearing it as opposed to non-Scots.

And by the way, whether it's really "traditional" or not, I love the look you have going on in the photo with the tartan waistcoat and hair sporran. That's one of my favourite pictures, and I think you look smashing!
