Prince Charlie Kilt Outfit With US Army Tartan Kilt

The pairing of a Prince Charlie outfit with a US Army tartan kilt is an interesting concept, but it's not traditionally done. Here's a breakdown of the two elements and why they might not be a perfect match:

Prince Charlie Outfit:

  • Formal wear: Think Scottish equivalent of a tuxedo.
  • Components:
    • Prince Charlie jacket: Double-breasted, short cut, often with contrasting lapels.
    • Kilt: Traditionally in a family tartan.
    • Waistcoat: Dressy vest, can also be contrasting.
    • Sporran: Dressy pouch worn at the front of the kilt.
    • Bow tie, dress shoes (Ghillie brogues), kilt pin, and other accessories.

US Army Tartan Kilt:

  • Modern design: Not a traditional family tartan, but a creation representing the US Army.
  • Appropriateness: Generally worn for casual events or to show military affiliation.

Why it might not be ideal:

  • The formality clashes: The Prince Charlie outfit is for black-tie events, while the US Army tartan is more casual.
  • Mixing cultural references: The Prince Charlie outfit is steeped in Scottish Highland dress tradition. Combining it with a US military tartan disrupts that traditional look.

Alternatives to Consider:

  • If you want to wear a US Army tartan kilt to a formal event, pair it with a different jacket, like a tweed blazer.
  • If you're set on the Prince Charlie outfit for a formal event, choose a traditional family tartan or another appropriate tartan.
  • There are tartan designs that represent various US states or regions. You could explore a state tartan kilt with the Prince Charlie jacket, depending on your heritage or preference.
