Hello,

I've read differing online guides that describe the correct occasions for wearing specific jackets. Is there a divide between occasions where a Prince Charlie coatee is proper, and when it's proper to wear a regulation doublet?

I ask because I have two tailcoats, and one will face the chopping block. There may be enough usable fabric to make either a PC with a matching waistcoat, or a doublet with the same. I'm one of those folks who err's on the side of formality when dressing.

Which would serve better for evening dress?

Kevin.
