I'm not sure about Hamish but Rocky at USAKilts does the suit kilts and you might want to check with Matt at the Tartan Museum.

I am sure it's a 21st Century Kilt creation

This is my grey pinstripe suit from Howie at TFCK in Edinburgh, tailored in 2003:
Go, have fun, don't work at, make it fun! Kilt them, for they know not, what they wear. Where am I now?

I'm kind of amazed at how many people, those who desire to be accepted in a kilt, were ignorant enough to tell you not to wear a hat...

We're ignorant because we responded to a call for opinions? Wrong.

I think a bowler/derby would look best with a waistcoat and jacket, but in my mind they've always been hats worn with suits of one form or another. YMMV.
I've been trying to figure out how to fit a 1930s or 40s style fedora with my kilt. I wear a crushable felt fedora with the kilt all the time, with the brim snapped down in the back, but the up-snapped brim is giving me a bit more pause.
A homburg, now, would look great with a kilt suit with jacket and vest, and an Inverness cape, with a cane or umbrella. Sort of a Conrad Veidt-meets-kilt.

As kilt wearers, we are all free-spirited, individualistic, unconventional, even courageous. These characteristics, however, do not grant one immunity from looking goofy! The fellow asked for honest opinions. No one said he CAN'T wear a bowler with a kilt; some just feel it would look odd at best, silly at worst. Honest opinions, my friend!
Sorry to be so "ignorant"....

Brian's post reminded me of the old saying: "Just because you can doesn't mean you should."
Opinions were asked for & given. No ignorance here.
