    Not with the kilt I know,but just to show that the cravat of a style, probably from the time of Beau Brummell(1700's?) ,we call it a hunting stock, much like Puffer wears, is still worn in the UK today.There is usually a gold safety pin(stock pin), much like a kilt pin, to hold it together, placed in the stock in the V of the jacket.

    By the way, this is what we mean by hunting,in the UK.

    Jock, you know if they cut off the bottom of the jacket it would look a LOT like mine.

    You know, Puffer, I'm a fan of a lot of the seventeen hundreds garb, as well as the late eighteen hundreds / early nineteen hundreds garb. I would love to wear, as a style, somewhat modernized versions of those clothing styles, the short jackets and knee pants etc, but it always seems to pull me off course with kilts.

    I think it was the stock I was asking about back there.
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
