Glad I could help.

My wife didn't like the PC. She said it looked like a waiter's jacket.

The Argyll and vest with the plaid is formal enough for any occasion, IMHO, and more versatile than the PC. You can lose the vest if you like for day events, or wear the vest w/o the jacket.

FWIW, most of this came from J Higgins, who happens to be right down the street from me. Every thing I've ever gotten from them (either directly or from eBay) has been of great quality.
