I would agree on the white kilt, but if you want a white jacket you can either have one made of find a shop that sells uniforms to cruise ship employees. A captains mess jacket would work fine.

This shop sells jackets that ought to work with a kilt, especially the ones at the bottom of the page:

If you shop around, you can also find Prince Charlies in white or cream. One of these days, way down on the priority list, I may get one of these just to have a "white dinner jacket" option.

Those work but I was actually talking about this style,

Minus the boards and with silver buttons it works great with no alterations. It already has the cutaway that works well with the kilt. The price from Marlow White isn't to bad but you can do better if you source it from a uniform store that supplies cruise ship officers.
If you can't find them online you can try a Miami directory.

Has anyone seen any pictures of the white Prince Charlies? It would be interesting to see how they look.

This looks really close to the military white mess jackets. Those look great with a kilt too, as long as you civilianize them (change buttons, remove rank insignia, etc.). Actually, they look grea with all that stuff too, but that's not really authorized.
