    A waistcoat alone is not ideal, but if that's what you have on hand, than wear it proudly. It's a not a full PC, but it will sure look a heck of a lot nicer that the guys in dress shirt and dockers. Please make sure that you are wearing good kilt hose and nice shoes as it will finish up the outfit. I have seen picks of people that are dressed up top, but wearing pushed down hose and boots below or black runners.

    There is a Simplicity pattern that has an argyle type jacket on it, but I can't remember the number right now

    Amen, Brotha Colin! I wore a plain sweater and a Gordon Kilt to the St. Pat's Parade yesterday and got a whole lot of wise-*** comments from all of the "Irish" guys that were there...dressed in their DOCKERS and - big concession to their Celtic Heritage - Arran Sweaters (most of which looked like they were bought many, many beers ago...if ya know what I mean).

    No matter what, you'll definitely out-class the commoners if you show up kilted...vest or jacket or whatever...

    Best
