PC vs Holyrood jacket/waistcoat differences

In answer to your question-- there is no difference in the level of formality between a PC and a Brian Boru. I should know as I designed the Brian Boru for Gaelic Themes. Due to the popularity of the jacket it appears as if they are now marketing it through St. Kilda with slightly different trim and calling it the "Holyrood".

Jeff,

Congratulations on holding the 52 Brian Boru. I love mine, so I'm assuming you will, also. It's definitely a great garment for the price. I'll try, this weekend, to post some pics of me in the new tank and BB.

One problem with my BB...took three weeks to get here. Talk about a long wait! I was soooooo excited, though, when I got home from work and looked out on to my porch.

Let us know when you get your BB, and pics are in order! I loved your recent pics with the new kilts!

I'm hugely impressed. Excellent!

I've long had a real fondness for the shawl collar, because for a period of about three years when I was in my twenties I could fit into my late father's old shawl collared dinner suit - and compared to everybody else with their contemporary huge pointy sharp collars, even I knew I looked vaguely well dressed.
