Morning Suit Equivalent

[davidlpope]

Seems to me that if the other men are in grey jackets, wearing a black jacket would make you not match.

If price was no object I myself would obtain a jacket in grey of about the same tone as Morning Dress jackets, and get a kilt in a grey tartan such as Highland Granite. Grey hose as well.

In other words, I would try to acutally match in with the other men, rather than theoretically match.

A jacket and kilt like this, but the jacket of fine grey barathea, not rustic tweed:

I have to respectfully disagree with you here. Why would you create a kilted outfit that attempts to conform to non-kilted attire norms? For my bit, I'd suggest either wearing the appropriate kilted equivalent without regard to this business of matching or scrap the plan and wear what the rest of the male participants will be wearing. I'm having a hard time seeing a connection, anyway, between a wedding in the South of France and Highland Culture, unless the friend in question is kilted all the time...
